SyncroPatch 384

NPC-384 chip

The NPC-384 chip is the cost-efficient and high quality consumable for the SyncroPatch 384. It is produced and quality-assured exclusively in-house at Nanion headquarters and shipped from Munich to our international customers. Different types of NPC-384 chips are available which should be chosen depending on cell size and application to maximize success rates. Our NPC-384 chips are ideal for a range of applications, including standard and fluoride-free experiments (physiological), organelle recordings, studies of mechano-activated ion channels, and fast ligand-gated ion channels.

Description and Material

  • Each NPC-384 chip contains 384 recording chambers
  • 384 well plate with borosilicate glass slide
  • All or part of the chip can be used for experiments, the rest of the chip used at a later timepoint
  • Supports external solution exchange during recording
  • Enables internal solution perfusion due to open design of the chip
  • Waste removal ensures that the number of exchanges of either the internal or the external solution is unlimited
  • Single hole or multi-hole chips are available
  • Chips are made from thin glass for improved access resistance and voltage control
  • A range of aperture sizes are available for a wide range of applications
  • NPC-384FF chips are available for fluoride-free recordings

Buffers and Solutions

Reliable buffer solutions are critical for any electrophysiological application. Our goal, therefore, is to provide high-class recording solutions that leave you in no doubt about quality and stability. Our quality assurance includes chemical tests as well as tests on our patch clamp systems of each lot. Our buffers are shipped with the corresponding "Certificates of Analysis" and "Material Safety Data Sheets" (MSDS).
