Abstract:Accurate
temperature measurement in one living cell is of great
significance for understanding biological functions and regulation.
Here, a nanopipet electric thermometer (NET) is established for real-time
intracellular temperature measurement. Based on the temperature-controlled
ion migration, the temperature change in solution results in altered
ion mobilities and ion distributions, which can be converted to the
thermoelectric responses of NET in a galvanostatic configuration.
The exponential relationship be… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
