Fraunhofer Center for Sensor Intelligence ZSI
Applications such as smart patches, printed microelectrode arrays and biosensors, biocompatible electrode structures
Biocompatibility testing of printed electrodes
Optical and electrical analysis of beating cardiac cells
Fraunhofer ZSI positions itself as a leading partner for the development of printed functional elements in medical technology and cell-based biotechnology.
The main areas of application for the pilot line include in particular:
- Development of smart patches with integrated patient monitoring
- Printed microelectrode arrays and biosensors, including suitable microfluidics where necessary, for cell culture and in vitro diagnostics
- Biocompatible and mechanically flexible electrode structures and electronic systems for medical wearables and active implants
- Evaluation/validation of technical developments in industry-relevant cell cultivation systems and environments (2D and 3D cell systems).
