Microinjector with cell penetrator, MICRO-ePUMP
Code MICRO-ePUMPWPI
WPI’s MICRO-ePORE™ Pinpoint Cell Penetrator technology is embedded inside the MICRO-ePUMP. When the researcher enables the MICRO-ePORE™, it delivers a highly localized voltage signal to a targeted injection site to facilitate penetration with minimal trauma. The researcher determines the amplitude and frequency of the signal that best suits the application. The signal originates in the control box, and it is transmitted through the electrode interface cable to the microelectrode holder. A silver wire is used to transmit the signal into the electrically conductive substance being injected. A reference electrode is used to place the media at 0.0 V potential with reference to the generated voltage.
