There is a problem that can't be ignored in the MEA collected-signal-sorting process: When a neuron positions in two adjacent microelectrodes, can its activity be detected at the same time by both microelectrodes? Under certain conditions, the contact between the electrode and the cultured cell could be simplified as capacitive contact. Because the distance and the covering area affect the capacitance the amplitude of potential decreases rapidly with the increase of distance to the microelectrode. We show that common MEA chip whose spacing of electrodes is 200 μ m can't detect the neuronal potential in its adjacent electrodes simultaneously. About 100-recorded experiments data in our lab confirm this conclusion.
