多電極陣列阻抗量測轉接器
多電極陣列（MEAs）在電生理學研究中早已被廣泛應用，是進行細胞培養阻抗量測的標準方法之一。
使用 Sciospec 的 MEArack，您將獲得一個簡潔且經過實證的解決方案，無需再煩惱手工接線、自行切換通道、或是要整合在自製晶片轉接板上搭配第三方多工器。透過 ExtensionPort 系統，MEArack 可直接插入 ISX-3 等兼容的阻抗分析儀中，即插即用 —— 就這麼簡單！
與我們的多工器搭配使用：任意通道對任意通道分配——無限可能！
是否曾遇過這樣的困境：要將感測器的通道對應到多通道裝置，卻總是受限於配置條件？甚至得在量測間手動更換線路來解決？好消息來了：這些煩惱將成為過去！我們的任意對任意多工器擺脫了傳統多工配置的限制，讓您完全自由地分配通道，不再需要為接線與配置絞盡腦汁。通道分配變得輕鬆愉快，還能開啟許多新應用可能，例如端口極性切換、在固定感測位置變換電流路徑、固定激發點並掃描電位或阻抗映射、多端口元件分析、甚至是任何您想像得到的應用！這些多工器都能勝任。並可以輕鬆實現 EIT的電流注入模式，並結合我們阻抗分析儀中的 EIT 測量選項，進一步對量測數據進行影像重建。

IMPEDANCE MEASUREMENT ON MULTIELECTRODE ARRAYS WITH
Well established in electro-physiological research the standard form factor multielectrode arrays (MEAs) are one of the go-to standards when it comes to impedance measurements on cell cultures.
With the Sciospec MEArack you get a simple and proven solution for tackling these measurements without any awkward self made cabling setups, labor intensive manual channel switching or complicated third party multiplexer integrations on top of a home cooked chip adapter… With the ExtensionPort system the MEArack just plugs into compatible impedance analyzers like the ISX-3 and you´re good to go – it´s that easy
In combination with our multiplexers: Any to any port assignments – nothing is impossible!
Did you ever find yourself in a situation where you had to solve the puzzle of assigning your sensor ports to a multichannel device but kept running into constraints? Maybe you even resolved to manually reconfiguring cables in between measurements to cope with this? Good news: These times are over! Freeing you of all channel assignment constraints as seen in conventional multiplexer arrangements, our any-to-any multiplexers give you complete freedom and take out the hassle and riddling of the port assignment and configuration process. Assigning ports becomes a breeze! Additionally, this opens up a world of new possibilities: switching polarities on ports, moving current paths on fixed sensing positions, fixed excitation points and scanned potential or impedance mapping, multiport component analysis, or anything else you can imagine. These multiplexers can do it. EIT style injection patterns are just as easily realized and combined with the EIT measurement option in our impedance analyzers you can do image re

Sensor and chip types
- industry standard electrodes/sensors available from several manufacturers
- tons of electrode geometries and materials to choose from
- custom made electrode structures to perfectly fit your needs
- optional integration of fluidic handling or temperature control
Just as important as the correct instrument is the sensor type you use. The MEArack is compatible with industry standard chips available from several manufacturers worldwide. Typical sensor geometries range from simple spot electrodes, over interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) up to highly specialized electrodes for specific cell cultures and experiment types.
Need something more tailored towards your needs? We can help you design and manufacture your own sensor structures specifically targeting your application. Integration of fluidic handling and temperature control is also available.
