At least one conductor path (7) is integrated into the carrier chip (4), which connects the structural component (5) to the electrical connection contact (8). The carrier chip (4) is inserted into the opening (3) in such a way that its ends project beyond the opposite-facing, flat-sided surfaces (9, 9′) of the substrate board (2), and thereby form overhangs (10, 10′). Here, the structural component is arranged on the overhang (10) projecting beyond the one surface (9), and the connection contact (8) is arranged on the overhang (10′) projecting beyond the other surface (9′), and the conductor path (7) connecting the structural component (5) and the connection contact (8) passes through the opening (3). A seal is arranged between the substrate board (2) and the carrier chip (4).

    摘要: A process is provided for the intracellular manipulation of a biological cell (3) which is positioned adhering to a support area (5) in a culture medium (2). Inside the support area (5) for the cell (3) an opening into the membrane of the cell (3) is created spaced from its support edge. The edge of the cell membrane surrounding the opening, adhering to the support area (5), thus seals off the cell fluid situated in the interior of the cell (3) from the culture medium (2) and insulates the cell fluid against the culture medium (2). The interior of the cell (3) is manipulated through the opening. An apparatus for implementing the process is also provided, including an object carrier (4) with a support area (5) for adhering the cell and a poration tool (6) for creating the opening in the cell membrane. The poration tool (6) may be any of various chemical, mechanical and/or electrical devices.

    摘要: In a method for examination of the surface of an object for a topographic and/or a chemical property, the object-surface is impinged with surface-structure selective biocomponents for examination of a topographic property and/or with chemoselective biocomponents for the examination of a chemical property, together with a nutrient medium and/or an osmotic protective medium for the biocomponents. The biocomponents contained in the nutrient medium and/or the osmotic protective medium are in contact with the object-surface or are spaced from the object surface by less than the detection range of the biocomponents. The object surface is then examined with the biocomponents contained in the nutrient medium and/or the osmotic protective medium by determining at least one examination measurement value. The examination measurement value is compared with a reference measurement value, and conclusions can be drawn about the topographic and/or chemical properties of the object from the result of the comparison. Using the method, an object surface can be examined for a topographic and/or chemical property in a simple manner with a high measuring sensitivity.
