Extracellular Flux Analyzer

Manufacturer: Seahorse

Location: Britanya 15

Acquisition Date: 2016

Seahorse XF Analyzers measure oxygen consumption rate (OCR) and extracellular acidification rate (ECAR) at intervals of approximately 5-8 minutes.

OCR is an indicator of mitochondrial respiration, and ECAR is largely the result of glycolysis.

Real-time measurements of OCR and ECAR are made by isolating an extremely small volume (about 2 μL) of medium above a monolayer of cells within a microplate.
