Inno-Cap

Inno-Cap is an Inno-Sol patented lid with pegs extending into the culture medium, made of inert material matching the medium’s acoustic properties. Its impedance, similar to aqueous solutions, allows effective ultrasound propagation to a phono-absorbent material positioned on top, ensuring precise acoustic interaction within the well.

Benefits:

Standing waves are desirable for sonoporation but should be avoided in stimulation experiments. Inno-Cap minimizes standing waves within the cell medium by immersing itself in the wells, with pegs slightly dipping into the solution meniscus (<1 mm). Ultrasound is propagated through Inno-Cap and delivered to a phono-absorbent material on top, effectively dampening the wavelet.

Targeted usage:

All Researchers dealing with cell stimulation via ultrasound

Experimental proof:

Work in progress with different Research Centers

Availability:

Available with 3 different peg heights so as to match different volumes of solutions of cell medium of the sample; compatible with any brand and format of cell plate (Falcon, Eppendorf, Corning etc…), and number of wells (6 up to 96 wells). The Inno-Cap inert material can be sterilized with a cycle of autoclave run @124°C, up to 15 times.

Packaging:

Sealed in single unit packages.
