Quartz Asperon Spray Chamber for NexION 300/350/2000/1000

Single Cell ICP-MS (SC-ICP-MS) is a technique that allows for the analyses and quantification of metal content in an individual cell. This technique can be used to quantify the uptake and bioaccumulation of metals and metal nanoparticles in to cells, as well as the intrinsic metals within the cells themselves which can be a measure of metabolomic changes related to cell stress or lifecycle. SC-ICP-MS is able to give information on: Metal content per cell Metal distribution in the cell population Number of cells containing metal or metal nanoparticles Number of nanoparticles per cell The Asperon Spray Chamber is designed to allow cells as large as 50 m to enter the plasma utilizing a tangential flow pattern that ensures proper cell transportation. This technology, combined with a dedicated autosampler capable of handling micro-volume samples, offers researchers the capability to do more with less sample volume. Included in the NexION 2000 Single Cell Sample Introduction Kit (N8150032) and in the NexION 350 Single Cell Sample Introduction Kit (N8140032).
