Real-time live cell activity of cardiomyocytes

9 Dec 2019

In vitro models are a proven powerful strategy for studying disorders of the human heart. Many of these disorders are the result of subtle changes to cardiomyocyte excitability, contractility, or both. The Maestro platform captures live-cell activity from cardiomyocytes in real-time, providing you the functional cell information you have been missing.

ElectrophysiologyElectrophysiology is the study of biological voltage changes, from a single ion channel through to a whole organ scale. Voltages can be measured using patch clamping, automated workstations, electrophysiology rigs or cell based assays. Specific cell lines, manipulators and microinjectors are also available for electrophysiology research.Cell AnalysisThe analysis of cells allows researchers to understand the factors which contribute to cell health and function. These influencing processes can then be predicted and altered, leading to the development of medication and disease treatments.Live Cell ImagingLive cell imaging is the study of living cells using microscopes and high-content imaging systems. This technique provides in-depth insight into fast and complex biological processes, by allowing dynamic imaging of living cells instead of acquiring an individual image at a single point in time.CardiomyocytesCell Signaling
