Abstract:
Electrodes are modified with polymer films to grant novel permeability. Often, redox probes partition from solution into film and are electrolyzed at the electrode. This creates a flux of probe into the polymer film and a flux of electrolyzed probe out of the polymer film. Transport of the probe through the film is governed by diffusion and migration, mathematically described from the Nernst-Planck equation as J_{i}=-D_{i}((∂C_{i}(x,t))/(∂x))-((z_{i}F)/(RT))D_{i}C_{i}(x,t)((∂Φ(x,t))/(∂x)) where x is the distance from the electrode, t is time, C_{i}(x,t) is space and time dependant concentratio

Within one tumor, cancer cells exist as different sub-populations due to the variations in expression of crucial bio-markers. The prevalence of even minor cell sub-populations can determine overall cancer progression and treatment response. Single-cell protein analysis is a way to identify these cell sub-populations; therefore we developed a microfluidic platform with ultrahigh-sensitivity for single-cell protein analysis. As the key step to develop such a platform, protein migration under the application of an electric field has to be understood. COMSOL multi-physics software is used as
