Electrochemical sensor centrifuge platform for single-cell study

SporeSat – a lab-on-a-chip (LOC) centrifuge platform designed for integration as the payload of a small (5.5 kg), free-flying satellite – has been developed to determine the gravitational thresholds for calcium-ion channel activation of a single-cell spore from the fern Ceratopteris richardii. This...
