Every Cell has a Story to Tell.
Let’s Discover Yours

Get in Touch

Electrically active cells play key roles across diverse biological models. Cardiomyocytes and muscle cells, for example, provide powerful in vitro models for investigating excitability, contraction, and tissue-level coordination.

Our High-Density Microelectrode Array (HD-MEA) technology captures rich electrophysiological signals at subcellular, single-cell, and network levels, delivering precise, label-free insights with unmatched spatial and temporal resolution.

Obtain unprecedented functional insights from your sample

Our Technology

Unbounded possibilities for your model

Our system adapts to your biological sample. Capture high-resolution functional data across electrically active samples with ease and reproducibility.

Every cell has a story to tell

Capture neuronal signals with unmatched single-cell resolution, many cells at a time.

Always at the right spot

Record high-quality data with thousands of electrodes per well, precisely positioned below the cell of interest, always right where it matters.

Don’t lose out on any action potentials

Acquire reliable action potentials, from largest to tiniest, and fully characterize the behavior of every cell and of the full population.

Sample Recordings

The MaxOne Single-Well and MaxTwo Multi-Well HD-MEAs enable high-resolution functional recordings from electrically active muscle and cardiac models. With 26,400 flexibly addressable electrodes per well, precisely monitor signal propagation, contraction patterns, and network synchrony.

Analyzing burst propagation in cardiomyocytes networks

Cardiomyocyte cultures form spontaneously active, electrically coupled networks that generate rhythmic bursts of activity. With our HD-MEA technology, you can visualize how these bursts initiate and propagate across the culture in real time, offering insight into synchronization, conduction properties, and functional connectivity of cardiac tissue. These insights are essential for understanding functional maturation, connectivity, and arrhythmogenic behaviors in cardiac models.

Tracking electrical maturation in skeletal muscle cultures

Investigate how skeletal muscle cells develop, synchronize, and communicate over time using our HD-MEA technology. Below, spontaneous spiking activity is visualized at subcellular resolution after one month of culture, revealing the emergence of organized electrical activity as myotubes form functional, contracting networks.
