Integrated electrode design

Synvivo cell impedance analyzer web

SynVivo’s SynTEER™ model has integrated TEER electrodes engineered directly within the multiplex chip architecture. This unique design allows for convenient non-invasive determination of TEER in multiple devices simultaneously enabling confirmation of mature barrier formation and detection of barrier disruption within minutes of compound exposure.

SynTEER™ Advantages

  • Real-Time Barrier Analysis Monitor barrier formation, maturation, and disruption dynamically with integrated TEER sensing directly within the microfluidic chip architecture.
  • Integrated Electrode DesignEmbedded electrodes eliminate cumbersome external electrode positioning while improving consistency and ease of use.

  • Rapid Detection of Compound EffectsIdentify barrier disruption within minutes of compound exposure, enabling faster assessment of drug response, toxicity, and inflammation.
