By means of the analytical formula of specific impedance for the spherical cells in suspensionintroduced by Kenneth S. Cole in 1928, a bioimpedance simulator has been developed for thegeneration of specific impedance spectrums of suspension of cells. With the help of the simulatorthe user can obtain different impedance spectrums according with the biophysical parameters ofthe cell suspension. Then, generate different kind of plots in order to understand and interpret allthe resulting information.With the selection of different values and range of the biophysical parameters to obtain thespectrums, it is possible to simulate different kinds of physiological process and observe theirelectrical bioimpedance behaviour in a certain range of frequencies. The performance of thesimulator has been validated simulating Cellular Edema and Haemorrhage has been alsosimulated.
