The Maestro Volt™ makes quality MEA data accessible to any lab. The introductory MEA system is our most budget-friendly offering, designed for labs with lower throughput needs.
Compatible with our 6-well CytoView MEA™ plates and the Neural or Cardiac module, Maestro Volt allows for noninvasive electrophysiological evaluation of your cells in an easy-to-use in vitro assay. Capture the dynamic electrical activity of excitable cells (e.g. neurons and cardiomyocytes) and see how Maestro Volt can supercharge your research.
KEY FEATURES
- Save on cost — The same quality MEA data at a budget-friendly price.
- Create detailed functional profiles — Dynamic spatial and temporal functional data evaluates how cells fire and interact in culture.
- Monitor cells noninvasively — Noninvasive electrodes track activity over time for in-depth developmental studies and maximum experimental flexibility.
- Precisely control the cells’ environment — The smart environmental chamber finely controls temperature and CO₂ while rejecting electrical noise and mechanical vibrations.
- See your cells — Maestro’s patented CytoView transparent circuit technology allows easy cell visualization and assay multiplexing.
- Control cellular activity — Electrical stimulation lets you recreate specific patterns of cellular activity.
- Perform complex experiments with simple assay techniques — Requires only basic culture techniques with no labels, dyes, or complicated steps.
Multiplex your assay: Maestro + Omni™
- Platform cross-compatibility lets you view live-cell imaging alongside real-time, functional data to enhance your analysis.
- Monitor electrode coverage and cell morphology to ensure consistent, quality results.
- Experience no-hassle tracking — the Axion Portal automatically links data via barcode.
SOFTWARE
The Maestro Volt platform is available with one of two software modules: Neural or Cardiac. Select the software module to match your assay needs:
- Neural – Measure the key parameters of neural network function, including activity (are the neurons functional?), synchrony (are the synapses functional?), and oscillation (is the network functional?).
- Cardiac – Record the four key measures of functional cardiac performance, label free and in real time in every well of the multiwell plate: action potential (a.k.a. LEAP assay); field potential; propagation; and contractility.
CONSUMABLES
The Maestro Volt is compatible with:
- CytoView MEA – The premium Maestro multiwell MEA plate with a transparent well bottom for cell visualization and assay multiplexing. The 6-well plate formats are compatible with the Maestro Volt.
CROSS-COMPATIBLE PLATFORMS
The Maestro Volt system has cross-compatibility with:
- Omni – See whole-plate images of your cultures next to real-time activity measurements. Confirm electrode coverage and culture health with just a few clicks from AxIS Navigator™. Compatible with Omni and Omni Pro 12™ systems.
