The Axion Biosystems’ Maestro Z Impedance Cell Analyzer delivers a powerful and intuitive solution for real-time, remote monitoring of live-cell experiments. Using the Maestro Z App, researchers can check in on their cells from virtually anywhere. This convenience ensures smooth operation and enhanced productivity, even when you’re away from the lab.
Precise Cell Control
The Maestro Z eliminates the need for a separate incubator by combining advanced environmental control into one system. It maintains precise temperature and CO₂ levels to support healthy cell growth. Moreover, it reduces electrical noise and vibration, creating an ideal environment for sensitive cell models.
Continuous Cell Monitoring
With the ability to monitor 96 wells in real time, Maestro Z supports continuous, uninterrupted data collection. Instead of using dyes or reporters that may alter cell behavior, this system relies on noninvasive, label-free impedance measurements. As a result, you can observe the same cell population for hours, days, or even weeks—without disruption.
Enhanced Visualization
CytoView-Z™ 96-well plates feature clear viewing windows in every well, making it easy to visualize cells during experiments. Additionally, this design allows for multiplexing, enabling researchers to collect visual and functional data simultaneously from a single plate.
Simplified Setup and Tracking
Setting up your assay is quick and easy. With the “one button setup” feature, the system automatically adjusts environmental conditions once a plate is docked. Furthermore, an integrated barcode scanner logs plate usage, making experiment tracking seamless and traceable.
Increase throughput with multiple Maestros
Continuously monitor multiple plates automatically and simultaneously with multi-Maestro support, designed to increase throughput and productivity. Save valuable bench space by connecting and controlling several Maestro systems from a single computer, simplifying your workflow while reducing hardware clutter—ideal for busy laboratories that require efficient, high-capacity data acquisition and analysis.
Start your assay with the push of a button
“One button setup” allows for effortless operation, as temperature and CO₂ levels automatically adjust the moment a plate is docked. An integrated barcode scanner logs each plate’s usage, enabling seamless experiment tracking, improved data organization, and enhanced traceability—making it easier to manage multiple runs and maintain consistent conditions.
Faster Results Review
The Maestro Z is designed to streamline every step of your workflow. Powered by AxIS Z™ software, it simplifies setup, execution, and analysis. In addition, the intuitive interface allows you to focus more on your research and less on troubleshooting complex tools.
Multiplex your assay: Maestro + Omni
Platform cross-compatibility lets you view live-cell imaging alongside real-time, functional data to enhance your analysis. Monitor electrode coverage and cell morphology to ensure consistent, high-quality results across experiments. Experience no-hassle tracking—the Axion Portal automatically links all relevant data via barcode for easy access and streamlined data management.
Increase Throughput
If your lab requires higher throughput, the Maestro Z easily scales to meet demand. You can monitor multiple plates at once and control several systems from a single computer. This saves bench space and significantly improves overall lab efficiency.
