Numerical calculation of the dielectric spectra of cell-type particles
Dielectric spectra of a suspension of cells in electrolyte solution and dipole coefficient spectra induced by an AC electric field are numerically calculated using a network simulation method. The cell model consists of a conducting internal medium surrounded by an insulating membrane and by a charged permeable cell wall. The dependence of the low-frequency dielectric spectra with the internal medium properties is analyzed.
