ECM 2001 System for Volumes up to 2mls

  • Image 1



The ECM 2001 System is a multipurpose pulse generator system capable of performing both electrofusion for hybridoma production, hybrid cell formation and nuclear transfer applications in addition to electroporation of cells in suspension and in vivo applications. For use in hybridoma production applications, users would require the ECM 2001 generator, 3.2mm gap or 10mm gap Microslides, and connection cables.  This system does not require proprietary fusion medium, but can be used with the Cytofusion Medium C for convenience. 

Electrofusion is achieved by the generation of a proprietary 1 MHz AC waveform for benign dielectrophoretic cell alignment, microsecond switchover from AC to DC creates efficient fusion results. After fusion, the AC pulse reapplication maintains compression of the cells following the DC pulse resulting in a higher number of hybrids.
