VIDEO: Improve Embryo Survival with Pinpoint Cell Pentration

Do you want to take the next step in your CRISPR-CAS9 projects, making the injection of biomolecules in your cell lines more efficient? You can now increase the viability of injected embryos with WPI’s MICRO-ePORE, which offers improved repeatability and functionality for pinpoint cell penetration for targeted microinjections in transgenesis.

VIDEO: Researcher's Review of the EVOM3

The EVOM is a special kind of voltmeter for measuring electrical properties across a layer of cells in culture or a biological membrane. It is the most commonly used commercial system for measuring across a layer of cultured cells. We are measuring TEER (TER) - Transepithelial Electrical Resistance. The EVOM3 allows us to zoom in and measure either resistance or voltage across these membranes or cells in culture.

VIDEO: Researcher Compares EVOM3 with an Ussing Chamber

An Ussing Chamber is used when performing barrier studies across an excised epithelial tissue. Similar measurements can be made in well plates using an EVOM series TEER Measurement Meter, which is used for epithelial tissue that is grown to confluence in a cell culture well. While EVOM measurements are only qualitative, your throughput is much greater with an EVOM3. The EVOMs are portable and much more economical than an Ussing Chamber. Here Ben Dubansky, PhD explains the differences between EVOMs and Ussing chambers.
