Oil-based plate-reader assays that measure mitochondrial respiration are time consuming and cumbersome to set up and run. Researchers interested in measuring real-time mitochondrial function in a plate reader need an alternative user-friendly  solution that provides valuable insights without breaking the budget. 

What is the Mito-rOCR assay?

• An innovative, oil-free, plate-reader-based workflow solution designed to assess mitochondrial function in live cells using plate reader technology.

What Does it Measure?: 

• It measures mitochondrial - relative oxygen consumption rate (mito-rOCR) using a novel fluorescent probe to detect subtle changes in oxygen concentration that does not interfere with normal cellular processes.

Why Choose Mito-rOCR?

• Oil-Free Solution: No more cumbersome oil-based assays.
• Rapid & Sensitive: Innovative microchamber design detects oxygen changes in minutes.
• User-Friendly: Easy setup with a complete starter kit.
• Multiplexing Capability: Use the same cells for secondary analysis.
• Flexible: Compatible with various multimode plate readers.
• Efficient Data Processing: Mito-rOCR specific Seahorse Analytics module simplifies data collection and visualization

Benefits:

• Consistent Results: Enhanced sensitivity and reproducibility.
• Time-Saving: Fast and simple workflow.
• Budget-Friendly: Valuable insights without breaking the bank.

Starter Kit Includes:

• 96-well microplate
• rOCR reagent
• Experimental control reagents
• Magnetic plate holder
• Seal lid (eliminates need for oil sealant)
