Maestro MEA
Maestro is the world’s most advanced MEA platform — offering unmatched flexibility, throughput, and performance.
Multielectrode arrays (MEA) provide a powerful, noninvasive method to measure spontaneous activity, detect drug-induced changes, and assess functional maturation in electrically active cells. Maestro MEA offers a window into cell function that other technologies simply can’t match.
Maestro adapts to your workflow with precision and power. Equipped with multi-modal capabilities including electrophysiology and impedance, Maestro delivers comprehensive, label-free functional data — all in real time and all from a single platform.
Key Features
“The MEA system is a great addition to our lab and has expanded our studies.”
- Robert Halliwell, PhD, University of the Pacific, USA
