Abstract
The equations that describe the magnitude of the beta-dielectric dispe rsion of biological cell suspensions are introduced. It is then demons trated how this magnitude can be used to monitor cellular biomass conc entrations in real time. These equations are then shown accurately to describe experimental data obtained over a wide range of cell sizes an d volume fractions.
