Impedance Module overview

The Impedance Module with AxIS Z makes impedance-based assays easy. Take control of experimental settings, view real-time cellular profiles, extract straightforward endpoints, or perform in-depth analysis of cytolysis or barrier function with ease.

Assay setup

• >> Assay setup is a breeze with automatic acquisition and pre-configured settings for analysis while allowing fast access to advanced settings as experimental needs require.
• >> Easily referenced color-coded plate map provides all the information about your experiment in real time and tracks control types for analysis automation.

Real-time visualization

• >> Continuous impedance data is displayed for each treatment group across the plate in real time. Drag the cursor to see a comparison across treatment groups at any time, along with a plate-wide impedance map which gives a broader comparison of effects across the plate. Add time-stamped notes to indicate important events, such as dosing, and later for normalization or correction with a single click.
• >> Monitor your active experiments from outside the lab with the new Maestro Z App. Use the app to check in on your cells and experiment to ensure everything is running smoothly while you are away.

Data analysis tools

• >> With the click of a button, plot percent cytolysis curves and see 50% killing time (KT50) values.
• >> With AxIS Z’s curve fitting tools, perform dose response analysis quickly and easily, computing EC50/IC50 automatically.
• >> AxIS Z’s Barrier Index lets you easily investigate permeability through cell membranes.
• >> Generate publication-ready figures with AxIS Z’s interactive report, called the Lab Notebook, which allows you to export figures and data tables directly to Microsoft Excel®. The Lab Notebook contains fully customizable figures with live data references and error bars.
