Extracellular sheet resistance in cell adhesion for exchange of bulk electrolyte. (a, left) Color-coded phase map of negative relative change of fluorescence Inline graphic for a narrow stripe of HEK293 cell on fibronectin in a bath electrolyte with a resistivity Inline graphic. The green line marks the periphery of cell adhesion. (a, right) Phase profile fitted with sheet resistance Inline graphic. (b, left) Phase map for narrow stripe at a bulk resistivity Inline graphic. (b, right) Phase profile fitted with Inline graphic. (c, left) Complete phase map after exchange of the bath back to a resistivity Inline graphic. (c, right) Phase profile fitted with Inline graphic. The frequencies are indicated in the figure. The color code is given in Fig. 5. The phase in the free membrane is marked by horizontal lines.
