نبذة مختصرة : International audience ; This paper demonstrates the efficient use of microwave dielectric spectroscopy for single cell irreversible electroporation monitoring. The experimental results point out a high correlation (R 2 higher than 0.94) with biological gold standard technique based on flow cytometry, whereas microwave approach features several key advantages: marker-less, contact-less and in-liquid cell(s) monitoring. The developed microwave and microfluidic-based biosensor reveals an increase in the capacitance and the conductance of single cells under investigation subjected to irreversible electroporation reflecting an increase in cell damages, which is in great correlation with results routinely obtained in biology. More interestingly, the post electroporation damages of cell have been experimentally quantified over time, which makes the microwave dielectric spectroscopy a technique of interest for cell's electroporation researches.
