Product Overview
With patent-pending designs, the ezPatch, ChannelMAX 100A and PatchMAX 100A product series make
patch clamp and two-electrode voltage clamp experiments less labor-intensive and more cost
effective, efficient, repeatable, and space saving. The ChannelMAX 100A combines both
two-electrode voltage clamp and patch clamp setups into one unit. The PatchMAX 100A is
a semi-automated patch clamp setup that can be used for both whole cell and single channel recordings on cultured cells and oocytes.
The ezPATCH is a smart manipulator that can detect cell membrane.
ezPATCH 100A
The ezPatch 100A manipulator is a smart manipulator. It has all the functions a manual manipulator has. In addition, it comes with
a computer controlled feedback system so that it can stop precisely after electrode touches cell membrane. The system is ideal for patch clamp.
PatchMAX 100A
The PatchMAX 100A is an automated patch clamping system. Controlled by a computer,
the instrument brings the patch pipettes to touch the surface of the cell membrane.
Compared to the high-throughput products on the market, ChannelMAX 100A is much more affordable.
The system can be manually controlled for experiments that need flexibility. It can be upgraded
to a ChannelMAX 100A, which supports both patch clamp and two-electrode voltage clamp.
ChannelMAX 100A Mini
The ChannelMAX 100A Mini is the mini version of the ChannelMAX 100A. Comprising two automated manipulators,
a data acquisition interface board, and software, the system can be used for doing one two-electrode voltage
clamp or two patch clamp experiments. As the system is small and automated, the user can run it
in parallel with a traditional two-electrode voltage clamp system to increase efficiency and save space.
The Mini system can be upgraded to the ChannelMAX 100A Twin.
ChannelMAX 100A Twin
The ChannelMAX 100A Twin comprises four automated manipulators, two perfusion chambers, one data acquisition
control system, and software. You may use the system for two two-electrode voltage clamp experiments,
or up to four patch clamp experiments. This system provides the best value for high throughput experiments.
Accessories
Accessories include perfusion chamber, perfusion chamber support, etc.
