Measure metabolism in minutes in a microplate in an easy-to-use instrument that takes little lab space. Analyzing mitochondrial function has never been easier!
Whether you are looking for an experienced OEM partner to design and mold components for your new product or a scientist seeking a custom plate we have the expertise to help you.”
15 lucky attendees will spend 2 days with David & Martin learning the appropriate use of isolated mitochondria and cells for XF bioenergetic experiments and data interpretation.
During this 2-day, hands-on training class, students aquire the skills for Key Operator Certification by performing multiple XF assays and data analysis. Understanding proper tissue culture technique, the impact of culture conditions on cell physiology, and how the XF Analyzer can be leveraged in their research work is also covered.

We’ve compiled all the methods, justifications, references and other data pertinent to your NIH Grant Application for an XF Analyzer in one complete package. This is the time to add mitochondrial dysfunction studies to your grant.
Discover why over 200 scientists have discarded their Clark electrodes for a faster, better and more accurate measurement of Cellular Bioenergetics.
The first new metabolic measurement in 50 years! Extracellular Flux (XF) assays non-invasively profile the metabolic activity of cells in minutes, offering scientists a physiologic cell based assay for determination of in vitro oxygen consumption, mitochondrial dysfunction, fatty acid oxidation, glycolysis, toxicity, and ATP turnover.
By measuring the two major energy producing pathways of the cell simultaneously, mitochondrial respiration and glycolysis, scientists get the most physiologically relevant assay available. The result is a better overall view of metabolism.
Adherent cells, primary cells, suspension cells and isolated mitochondria can be analyzed easily. Extracellular Flux (XF) assays allow you to measure mitochondrial function and dysfunction in living cells with less setup and clean up than Clark electrode methods.
