Whitley i2 Seahorse Workstation

Analyze your cells in precisely controlled hypoxic conditions.

Seahorse workstation

The Whitley i2 Seahorse Workstation has been developed in response to a rising demand from scientists who desire to use a Seahorse Extracellular Flux (XF) Analyzers* in hypoxic conditions and were dissatisfied with the solutions available. Rather than adapting an existing chamber for this purpose, Don Whitley Scientific developed a new workstation specifically to suit the precise requirements of Seahorse Bioscience.

Extensive research and careful consideration has gone into the development of the i2 which has resulted in a modular system that includes a number of novel and unique features. This workstation can be used as a stand-alone unit or connected to a HypOxystation via the Whitley Transfer Tunnel, enabling preparation of cell lines under hypoxic conditions and their transfer directly into the i2 without exposure to air.

Another unique feature is the integral incubator, which enables you to precondition cellware and incubate plates and media at 37ºC under the same atmospheric conditions to be used with XF Analyzer.

The i2 maintains an internal temperature no higher than 28ºC, excludes CO2 and provides precise O2 control.
