Agilent Seahorse XFe96 and XF Prep station
The Seahorse XFe96 is a high-throughput real-time analyser of cellular function. It measures oxygen consumption rate (OCR) and extracellular acidification rate (ECAR) of live cells in response to substrates, inhibitors, chemicals or compounds. To aid high-throughput experiments available for use is also a prep station which allows automated plate washes and media changes as well as incubates plates prior to assay.
- The XFe96 analyser measures glycolytic rates, metabolic and mitochondrial function of live cultured cells (adherent, suspension or 3D cultures), isolated mitochrondria, ex-vivo samples and non mammalian samples in real time
- Highly sensitive, it can analyse as low as 5,000 cells per well in a 96 well format
- Automatically measures oxygen consumption rate (OCR) and extracellular acidification rate (ECAR)
- Capable of 4 independent injections per well with automatic mixing
- Applications include dose-response studies and compound screening
- The XF prep station complements the analyser by allowing automated washing, incubation and preparation of cells prior to assay with the XFe96 analyser
