Seahorse XF Pro analyser

Descriptions

The Centre for Cardiovascular Science (CVS) is part of the new Institute of Neuroscience and Cardiovascular Research (INCR). CVS comprises ~200 researchers encompassing a wide range of cardiovascular research split into four main themes (Metabolism, Obesity and Diabetes; Coronary and Valvular Heart Disease; Hypertension and Renal; Cardiometabolic Imaging). Centre for Cardiovascular Science (CVS) requests an Agilent Seahorse XFe24 analyser and software for high throughput real-time metabolic analysis of living cells and tissue explants. The instrument will add easy-to-use capability for metabolic measurements in living cells to better understand cellular metabolism. The replacement XFe24 machine will support the requirements of the centre to deliver world-leading research in the field of metabolism. The replacement XFe24 will allow high sensitivity measurement of real-time respiration in immortalised and primary cells and in tissue explants in several species.
