Product group: OOC

Is it possible to monitor oxygen levels?
It is possible to couple Micronit OOC devices to commercial optical readers for dissolved gases in the culture medium. This option allows for applications such as the monitoring of oxygen in the culture chamber.
Is my OOC system compatible with my imaging systems?

The membrane is moving and flow is switching between top and bottom flow path. What is happening?
Always check that there’s no blockage in one of the flow paths, this can be verified by checking the amount of collected liquid in a specific time frame and compare it with the expected amount for the flow rate used.If this isn't the case, droplet formation on the end of the tubing is the problem. Each falling droplet affects the flow a bit, resulting in changes in flow rates. Resolve this by keeping the end of the tubing in the collection reservoir submerged in liquid.
How do I clean my resealable flow cell's / OOC top and bottom layers?
The glass layer without a gasket can be cleaned using the same methods commonly used for glass microscope slides. The gasket layer, however, requires more careful handling. For detailed instructions, see "Read More".
How do I sterilize my resealable flow cell's / OOC top and bottom layers?
Advice on sterilization of glass slides and glass slides without gasket can be found under "Read More".
What is the oxygen permeability data for the elastomer used?
More details on oxygen permeability can be found under "Read More".
