Meander Fusion Chamber, pkg 4

The BTX Meander Fusion Chamber is a novel microslide design which is specifically used for electro cell fusion. The Meander Fusion Chamber generates a divergent field and is used for fusion of mammalian cells, plant, yeast, fungi and microorganisms.

This specialty electrode is constructed of a conductive metal alloy. It has two primary bars that are connected by many tiny fingerlike projections. These projections are spaced 0.2 mm apart. This electrode is mounted on a glass slide. It is designed for direct viewing of dimer formation during alignment while under a microscope.

The Meander Fusion Chamber is compatible with the ECM 2001+, Legacy ECM 2001, ECM 830, or Gemini X2 pulse generators. Cao et al. 1995 used the Meander Fusion Chamber to generate quadromas secreting bifunctional antibodies. He found this method both rapid and economical to produce several quadromas in a short time.
