Integrate your existing manipulators into a fully integrated patch clamp rig for cell culture.
The Scientifica PatchScope is an ultra-stable, motorised inverted microscope. It is perfectly suited to patch clamp electrophysiology in cultured cells when you want to integrate your existing manipulators. The PatchScope can also be used as a standalone inverted microscope.
It is ideal for many research areas, including neuroscience, cardiac and ion channel.
Product benefits
Built for cell culture experiments
The PatchScope has been created by electrophysiologists, for electrophysiologists. There is no compromise in the design and use as a purpose built, microscope for cell culture.
Get started, quickly
The PatchScope can be installed, and set up ready to use, very quickly. This saves your time and ensures you can get on with your experiments without delays.
Keep your sample in focus, at the push of a button
The Motorised Objective Changer allows you to change smoothly between two objectives, meaning you can see what you want, without having to touch the microscope.
Easy to use, simple to acquire data
The user-friendly design means that the system is simple to handle and work with - perfect if you are new to patch clamping as well as if you are experienced.
Configure the system to suit you
The PatchScope has been designed with versatility in mind - to meet your unique experimental needs. The system can be supplied with or without eyepieces and fluorescence.
Quickly change the fluorescence illumination and image
Tne motorised fluorescence allows you to adjust the florescence filters without touching the microscope, improving the reliability of your delicate recordings.
