Overview
The survival of tissues and organs relies on an adequate supply of oxygen to the mitochondria within the tissue cells. Importantly, the measurement of tissue oxygen partial pressure (ptiO2) provides a measure of oxygen availability at the cellular level.

Our oxygen sensors are based on state of the art optical fluorescence technology for continuous quantitative monitoring of regional pO2 in tissue and fluids. The technology employed offers several key advantages over devices based on polarographic electrodes, which make our oxygen sensors much easier to use, better suited to physiological oxygen measurements and incredibly sensitive under conditions of tissue hypoxia.
 

Key features:
Whether your application requires the strikingly designed, multi-channel OxyLite monitor or the single channel OxyLab pO2 monitor, you will benefit from the following features:

 

Multi-parameter - both systems can be combined with their blood flow monitoring counterpart to uniquely provide the measurement of pO2, blood flow and temperature from the same tissue site using a single sensor.
 

Fluorescence quenching technology - zero oxygen consumption, providing exceptional sensitivity to hypoxia and ultimate accuracy.
 

Rapid response - allows continuous, real-time pO2 monitoring.
 

MRI compatible - sensors are suitable for use during MRI, as well as hyperthermia and photodynamic therapy (PDT).
 

Automatic temperature compensation from integrated temperature sensors.
 

Ease of use - sensors are supplied factory-calibrated as a time saving measure.
 

Minimally invasive sensors - 250-500 microns in diameter
