cellZscope systems
are the ideal tools for studying epithelial or endothelial cells in vitro.

cellZscope systems allow automated, long-term monitoring experiments with up to 96 different cell cultures simultaneously. The transepithelial/transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER) and optionally the capacitance (C_cl) of various types of barrier-forming cells cultured on permeable membranes can be analyzed in real-time. The cellZscope is easy to operate and has a broad range of possible applications.
