Remote Cell Growth Sensing Using Self-Sustained Bio-Oscillations [PDF]

, 2018
A smart sensor system for cell culture real-time supervision is proposed, allowing for a significant reduction in human effort applied to this type of assay. The approach converts the cell culture under test into a suitable “biological” oscillator.
