The Eppendorf PiezoXpert® provides piezo-assisted micromanipulation, enabling simple penetration in cells for microinjection or micromanipulation.

Features:

• Fast and simple sample processing using intuitive operation
• Reproducible parameter setting
• Indeal space-saving design of the actuator for easy and reproducible installation
• Program keys to save your experimental parameters
• Trigger impulses with an ergonomic foot control or rotary knobs right on the device
• Optical feedback of triggered impulses
• Additional Clean function for simple cleaning of the microcapillary

Penetration of the cell membranes is supported by piezo impulses which are directly transferred to the capillary without loss. Piezo-assisted micromanipulation improves the results of a host of applications:

• Transfer of embryonic or induced pluripotent stem cells into blastocysts
• Mouse ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection)
• Enucleation/nuclear transfer
