z-Movi
For small-sized Cell Avidity studies
A fast and simple solution for single-sample Cell Avidity experiments. Run up to 20 measurements per day.
Ideal for small studies
Run up to 5 sequential Cell Avidity measurements on the same monolayer, with up to 20 measurements per day.
Easy & flexible
Get started quickly with low set-up times, user-friendly software and easy to follow protocols guiding you through the steps.
Fits in the smallest of labs
Execute Cell Avidity experiments without any space constraints. The z-Movi fits in the smallest of fumehoods and labs.
Workflow
Start measuring in no-time
Measure the overall strength of interaction between cells, or between proteins and cells.
Culture your target cells
Flow in your target cells and incubate between 2 hours to overnight, forming a uniform and robust monolayer in each chip.
Flow in your effectors
Introduce fluorescent effector cells or protein coated beads. The z-Movi automatically takes care of the force application to ensure repeatable measurements.
Get real-time insights
Obtain preliminary Cell Avidity results right as the measurement happens, enabling immediate insights into possible binding behavior.
Grab your data and clean up
Visualize and analyze your data from the comfort of your desk or home. The re-usable chip can be cleaned using our standard cleaning protocols.
Platform
Take a look inside
Discover the advanced technology and engineering that makes Avidion possible
Acoustic force application
Automatically manages media exchanges and reagent additions, ensuring consistent and reproducible biology.
Fluorescence imaging
To capture Cell Avidity, the z-Movi utilizes fluorescence microscopy (635nm) to identify and track cell behavior throughout the force application.
Re-usable chip
Each z-Movi includes 5 re-usable chips that support up to 125 runs each. The chip allows for the creation of a robust monolayer and contains smart electronics to maintain consistent quality over its lifetime.
Temperature controlled
The z-Movi’s chip is temperature controlled, ensuring your experiments are consistently executed at the right conditions.
