Key
features
Outstanding sensitivity
in the physiologically relevant pO2 range (0 - 100 mmHg)
and to hypoxia.
Zero oxygen consumption
at the point of measurement - thus innately
suitable for continuous (temporal) oxygen sensing even
under conditions of hypoxia.
Insensitivity to
artefacts caused by photo-bleaching, ambient
light or protein fouling.
Ease of use
- factory pre-calibrated sensors for ultimate convenience.
No time-intensive user calibration procedures required.
Absolute units -
pO2 data are provided in units of mmHg or kPa.
Real time measurements
- sensor response time of 5 - 10 seconds provides
quasi real-time oxygen environment information.
Minimally
invasive - choice of sensor diameters
ranging from 250 µm - 700 µm.
Automatic temperature
compensation of the pO2 measurement through
optional, integrated temperature sensors.
MRI compatibility
- fibre-optic sensors are suitable for use during magnetic
resonance imaging.
Multi-channel models
for measurements from up to 4 tissue sites (or in
vitro samples) simultaneously - ideal for studying
spatial tissue pO2 heterogeneity and for simultaneous
comparisons of pathological versus control tissue sites.
Simultaneous tissue
pO2 and blood perfusion monitoring from a single,
combined sensor via use of counterpart
blood perfusion monitors.
Standard analogue
data output - compatibility with third party
data recording solutions for continuous recording of
output traces to PC or Mac platforms.
