NPC®-Chips
NPC®-1
NPC®-1 chips are used for the Port-a-Patch®. Their core structure is a planar borosilicate glass slide with its micron-sized patch aperture.
This structure is incorporated into a screw cap for easy handling and minimal cycle times between experiments.
Additionally, the unique design of the NPC® -1 chip gives similar access to the external and internal solution. Continuous perfusion of the internal solution has finally become possible!
Available default aperture sizes are: 1 - 2 MW, ~2MW, 2 - 3.5MW, ~3MW, 3 - 5 MW, 5 - 10 MW, 8 - 12 MW, 10 - 15 MW. Other sizes are available upon request!
