Mitocell Respirometer

MT200/MT200A

Micro-volume respirometer for researchers measuring oxygen uptake of mitochondrial, enzyme and cell preparations

Features

  • Glass chamber with good visibility of contents
  • Transparent polycarbonate plunger
  • Substrate and inhibitors injected directly into chamber
  • Integral magnetic stirrer
  • Automatic calculations of State 3 and 4 respiration rates, ADP/O ratios and RCP when used with Strathkelvin oxygen meters and software

Overview

The Mitocell Respirometer is the latest design in precision respirometry chamber measurement.

The interchangeable glass chambers enable measurement of dissolved oxygen and study of respiration rates from micro-volume mitochondrial and isolated cell preparations.

Uniquely designed plunger, permitting injection of respiratory substrates and inhibitors directly into the respirometry chamber.

Glass Chamber Volumes

A choice has to be made whether the glass required is an MT200 or the larger MT200A, or alternatively, you can order extra glassware (one of each size) dependent on your requirements.

The MT200 is designed for the measurement of the respiration rate of either 50 µl or 100 µl sample volumes of mitochondria and cell suspensions.

The larger MT200A is designed for volumes of 0.3 ml, 0.5 ml and 1.0 ml sample volumes.
