Electric Field-Induced Effects on Neuronal Cell Biology Accompanying Dielectrophoretic Trapping (Advances in Anatomy, Embryology and Cell Biology)

Trapping neuronal cells may aid in the creation of the cultured neuron probe. The aim of the development of this probe is the creation of the interface between neuronal cells or tissues in human body and electrodes that can be used to stimulate nerves in the body by an external electrical signal in a very selective way. In this way, functions that were (partially) lost due to nervous system injury or decease may be restored.
