BTX Enhancer 3000 Monitoring System™

The Enhancer 3000 Monitoring System allows the researcher to confirm and track key electroporation parameters, including waveform, peak voltage, field strength, pulse length, pulse duration, and frequency in all electroporation generators with external pulse capabilites.

These parameters are critical during optimization sample runs or troubleshooting.

The Enhancer 3000 simply interfaces between the generator and the electroporation chamber (safety stand or BTX electroporation plate handler),

In addition, the optional communications module allows the user to send the waveform information directly to a printer or a computer.

Key Features

  • Confirm and track all key electropoation parameters
  • Monitors all waveforms for optimization or troubleshooting of electroporation parameters
  • Facilitates calculation of field strength, pulse length, pulse duration or frequency
  • Safe connections protect user from exposure to high voltage
  • Optional Communications Module offers standard printer and computer interface
