Nanion's Orbit 16 TC platform takes the pain out of bilayer painting and subsequent recordings as it enables fast and successful data generation thanks to the rapid automated formation of 16 bilayers at once and their subsequent fully parallel recording. The benefits the Orbit 16 TC offers include:
Automated formation of 16 artificial lipid bilayers at the push of a button
Fully parallel low noise, high bandwidth recordings
Substantial data generation due to 16 simultaneous recordings
Automated temperature control
Temperature range freely definable between 5-50°C
Dedicated comprehensive recording software included
Target molecules can be introduced directly or by fusion of (proteo-)liposomes
Ion channels: voltage and ligand gated, temperature sensitive
Nanopores, antimicrobial peptides, toxins and many more...
Cost-efficient experiments with disposable MECA 16 TC chips
The Orbit 16 TC is equipped with a dedicated low-noise 16 channel amplifier (Elements S.R.L.) enabling the convenient fully parallel recording of 16 bilayers at highest bandwidths and supreme signal to noise ratios.
An Orbit 16 TC setup consists of the main recording station, an integrated Elements e16n bilayer amplifier, a temperature control system and a dedicated workstation.
