Abstract :
The purpose of this article is to present first results of electrical detection of micro-beads, using impedance spectroscopy technique, with a wholly integrated device. The whole integration concerns as well the electronics as the micro-fluidic integration inside a LSI device, by post-processing. The results are first steps in the development of this wholly integrated device, intended to be for biological cells analyses.
