| Abstract | In this paper, we document a fabrication process that yields linear arrays of rectangular platinum black electrodes spaced 25 mum apart with edge-to-edge separation of 20 mum. The spatial arrangement is therefore sufficiently fine to insure stimulation and recording within cardiac tissue space constants, as six electrodes with dimensions of either, 5x100 mum2, 5x250 mum2 or 5x500 mum2 were positioned in a 130-mum span in the arrays. Despite the small electrode sizes and available surface areas, favorable impedance characteristics were identifed. Averages ranged from 111 kOmega to 146 kOmega at 0.5 Hz and from 14 kOmega to 39 kOmega at 500 Hz. Differences in impedances between the electrode sizes tested were small. Potential differences (deltaPhis) recorded using the two central electrodes during stimulation with combinations at separations of only 75 mum , 100 mum , and 125 mum had low signal noise. As a preliminary test of the use of these arrays for possible application to impedance measurements in cardiac tissue, the deltaPhis recorded during stimulation were compared to deltaPhis obtained from finite-difference simulations using an isotropic volume conductor model. Anticipated decays in with widening electrode separation identified in those simulations matched the decays in the recorded s closely. These findings are significant because they suggest intracellular and interstitial microimpedance mesurements in heart experiments will be straightforward. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
