Screening for Mitochondrial Biogenesis and Toxicity
A sensitive and robust cell-based screening assay.
Mitochondrial damage compromises ATP production and consequentially cellular viability. Given the central role that mitochondria play in regulating cellular function, drugs that undermine mitochondrial function frequently elicit toxic effects...

Mitochondrial dysfunction is of central concern in the ageing process. Increasing age correlates with an accumulation of oxidative damage and somatic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations and a decline in oxidative phosphorylation.
The XF Analyzer generates data that can provide new understanding in relation to aging and mitochondrial dysfunction, by allowing the measurement of cellular metabolism in real-time, in a microplate. By measuring the oxygen consumption rate (OCR) - a measure of mitochondrial respiration; as well as the extracellular acidification rate (ECAR) - a measure of glycolysis, you will be provided with the most physiologically relevant in vitro measurement for your bioenergetic studies.
