Bioelectrical impedance measurement is a widely used biomedical detecting technology. However, most traditional bioelectrical impedance measurement devices are bulky, expensive and lack of flexibility. In order to reduce costs, increase flexibility and maintain similar performance, a portable bioelectrical impedance measurement system was designed in this paper. The measurement front, with an ARM based microcontroller and integrated impedance converter chip as its core device, communicated with the host computer via USB bus. Based on the four-electrode technique, DFT digital demodulation and software calibration and compensation algorithm, the system realized its functions. Experimental results indicate that the system can achieve high precision bioelectrical impedance measurement. With the advantage of high integration and low-cost, the system can be widely used in household healthcare, clinics and biomedical research and testing.

This article describes a measurement of human abdominal fat device designed based on BIS (bioimpedance spectroscopy), the device adopts four electrodes multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance measurement system, including the programmable signal generator module and the amplitude and phase detection module. Program controlled signal generator module can generate the high output impedance of the constant current source in the eight frequency points constant current source between 5KHz and1MHz; amplitude phase detecting module can detect the human body electrical impedance real part and imaginary part information. Therefore, the device can be accurate measurement of human abdominal impedance information in the whole frequency range. Meanwhile, according to the selected electrode fixed position and the appropriate measurement scheme, can calculate the corresponding depth of abdominal fat content.

This paper designed a bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy (BIS) measurement system based on the integrated impedance converter AD5933. The working principle of the AD5933 was briefly introduced, and a bipolar BIS measurement device was designed. The AD5933 can be controlled by MCU STC89LE516AD through an I2C bus. The software of the BIS device was written in C51 language and provides a friendly human-machine interface. Preliminary experiment showed that the impedance measurement error at different frequencies is less than 3% and found that the measurement accuracy is relatively high for larger resistor.

Abstract Bioimpedance analysis is a label-free and easy approach to obtain information on cellular barrier integrity and cell viability more broadly. In this work, we introduce a small, low-cost, portable in vitro impedance measurement system for studies where a shadow-free exposure of the cells is a requirement. It can be controlled by a user-friendly web interface and can perform measurements automated and autonomously at short intervals. The system can be integrated into an existing IoT network for remote monitoring and indepth analyses. A single-board computer (SBC) serves as the central unit, to control, analyze, store and forward the measurement data from the single-chip impedance analyzer. Various materials and manufacturing methods were used to produce a purpose-built lid on top of a modified 24-well microtiter plate in a “do it yourself” fashion. Furthermore, three different sensor designs were developed utilizing anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) membranes and gold-plated electrodes. Preliminary tests with potassium chloride (KCl) showed first promising results.
