The xCELLigence RTCA S16 instrument uses non invasive electrical impedance monitoring to quantify cell proliferation, morphology change, and attachment quality in a label-free, real-time manner.
The S16 (single 16-well plate) model is the smallest within the xCELLigence instrument line. The instrument is placed in a standard CO2 cell culture incubator and interfaces via a cable with analysis and control units that are housed outside the incubator. User friendly software allows for real-time control and monitoring of the instrument, and includes real-time data display and analysis functions.
By skipping the guesswork associated with end-point assays and eliminating the time- and labor-intensive steps of traditional cell-based assays, real-time cell analysis (RTCA) with the xCELLigence RTCA S16 vastly improves efficiency and overall productivity.
Highlights:
- 1x16 well format is well suited for assay development and optimization
- Compatible with E-Plate 16, E-Plate View 16, and E-Plate 16 PET
- RTCA Software Lite specifically designed for RTCA S16 provides predefined assay templates for easy experimental setup
