TL;DR: Many interesting publications are collated to provide a comprehensive review of the development and diversity of this technology but also provide scope for future direction and detail the fundamentals for those wishing to design such devices for the first time.

TL;DR: The use of Microfluidic Impedance Cytometry (MIC) was used to characterise the AC electrical (impedance) properties of single parasites and demonstrate rapid discrimination based on viability and species, which offers a reduction in identification time and labour demands when compared to existing detection methods.

TL;DR: This paper explores the use of neural networks for fast label-free particle characterization during microfluidic impedance cytometry using a recurrent neural network designed to process data from a novel impedance chip layout for enabling real-time multiparametric analysis of the measured impedance data streams.

TL;DR: It is envisioned that impedance cytometry can serve as a tool to quantify phenotypic heterogeneity for rapidly stratifying tumorigenicity and aid in protocols for dielectrophoretic isolation of cells with a particular phenotype for prognostic studies on patient survival and to tailor therapy selection to specific patients.

TL;DR: Electrochemical detection of pyocyanin (PYO) can be used to rapidly assess the critical ciprofloxacin level required for bactericidal deactivation of P. aeruginosa within just 2 hours in antibiotic-treated growth media.
