Impedance amplitude and phase measurement at 1 kHz and 100 kHz, simultaneously as well as cellular images squeezing through the constriction channels for A549
(a) and H1299 (b) based tumor cells, respectively. During the cell squeezing process, there is an amplitude increase and phase decrease for data at both 1 kHz and 100 kHz. Basal impedance amplitudes (no cell entry) at 1 kHz were lower than the values at 100 kHz and there were higher impedance amplitude increases during the cellular squeezing process at 1 kHz than those of 100 kHz. As to the phase data, basal phase values (no cell entry) at 1 kHz were almost zero degree, which were higher than the values at 100 kHz. There were higher phase changes during the cellular squeezing process at 100 kHz than 1 kHz.
