Phys. 38, 113 (2002) | | Subject: | Soft Condensed Matter; Biological Physics | cond-mat.soft physics.bio-ph q-bio | | Affiliation: | Chinese University of Hong Kong), Jun Lei (Shanghai Jiao Tong University) and Hong Sun (University of California, Berkeley | | Abstract: | Recent experiments revealed that the dielectric dispersion spectrum of fission yeast cells in a suspension was mainly composed of two sub-dispersions. The low-frequency sub-dispersion depended on the cell length, while the high-frequency one was independent of it. The cell shape effect was simulated by an ellipsoidal cell model but the comparison between theory and experiment was far from being satisfactory. Prompted by the discrepancy, we proposed the use of spectral representation to analyze more realistic cell models. We adopted a shell-spheroidal model to analyze the effects of the cell membrane. It is found that the dielectric property of the cell membrane has only a minor effect on the dispersion magnitude ratio and the characteristic frequency ratio. We further included the effect of rotation of dipole induced by an external electric field, and solved the dipole-rotation spheroidal model in the spectral representation. Good agreement between theory and experiment has been obtained. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0104437 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
