Electrode polarization is a major nuisance while determining dielectric properties of cell and particle suspensions and tissues, particularly at low frequencies. Understanding of these interfacial phenomena and appropriate modelling are essential in order to correct for its distortion of the dielectric properties of the sample of interest. I survey the following topics, concentrating on contributions from our laboratory: Linear properties of electrode polarization and relevant models. Effects of electrode polarization on sample impedance. Effects of sample on polarization impedance. Techniques of correction. Extension of linear to nonlinear models Harmonics generated in the nonlinear range.
