Résumé

The release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) or reactive nitrogen species (RNS), ie, the initial phase of oxidative stress, by macrophage cells has been studied by electrochemistry within a microfluidic device. Macrophages were first cultured into a detection chamber containing the three electrodes system and were subsequently stimulated by the microinjection of a calcium ionophore (A23187). Their production of ROS and RNS was then measured by amperometry at the surface of a platinized microelectrode. The fabricated microfluidic device provides an accurate measurement of oxidative release kinetics with an excellent reproducibility. We believe that such a method is simple and versatile for a number of advanced applications based on the detection of biological processes of secretion by a few or even a single living cell.
