ABOUT THE LOCSENSE ARTEMIS IMPEDANCE/TEER DETECTOR

The Locsense Artemis is an automated, real-time impedance/TEER detector, providing an objective standard for the barrier integrity. Monitor the barrier integrity, while the cell culture is located inside an incubator. The Artemis can be coupled to transwell plates with inserts and microfluidic chips.The Artemis software is intuitive, suitable for first-time users and provides in-depth analysis of impedance measurements.

LOCSENSE, TRUSTED PARTNER IN CELL BIOLOGY

WHAT CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US

The Artemis has become an essential piece of technology in a majority of the experimental and quality control workflows in our laboratory. This system has enabled us to establish reliable, rapid and cost-effective methodologies to assess bioelectrical parameters of cells and tissues.

This advancement has sped up our development of sophisticated human-like organ and tissue models. The Artemis is now a key tool for testing the quality of these models and assessing the safety of nanoparticles (such as air pollutants), as well as the safety and efficacy of new therapeutics (like extracellular vesicles) for repairing various organs.

Additionally, using the Artemis has significantly reduced the number of tests needed to evaluate the models and decreased the use of plasticware in the lab, contributing to the sustainability of our research. Lastly, the Locsense team has provided exceptional support with experimental setup and data analysis.

ABOUT LOCSENSE

Locsense was founded in 2016 in Enschede and is revolutionizing how we monitor, measure, and test cells right from the lab bench, offering a cruelty-free alternative to animal testing. Our flagship device, the Locsense Artemis, is a non-invasive sensor that monitors cell health, enabling groundbreaking discoveries in fields like cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and the food industry.

Locsense is at the forefront of lab technology with devices that non-invasively monitor and test cells outside the body. In our bodies, cells often form protective barriers. Think of these barriers as tiny walls that separate different areas. For example, the lining of your gut has cells that create a barrier between your food and the rest of your body, or the skin which forms a protective barrier for influences from outside.

Impedance measurements offer a way to measure how strong these barriers are and whether they are intact. The Artemis offers insight into how healthy cell barriers are. This is crucial for drug testing, studying diseases, and making sure our body’s defenses work properly.

Our products are designed to combine with conventional workflow. At the same time they can be coupled to innovative in-vitro cell culture platforms, such as microfluidic chips, organs-on-chip or smartplates.
