Signal of the O2k-Core and add-on modules

Three channel types are available in the O2k-MultiSensor system:

  1. O2 channel with electric current (ampere [Amp]) as the primary signal, which is converted to a voltage (volt [V]) as the raw signal. The O2k-Core supports not only the O2 channel, but also the channel types 2 and 3 for the add-on modules.
  2. Amp channel: The amperometric channel of the O2k, has electric current (ampere [Amp]) as the primary signal, which is converted to a voltage (volt [V]) as the raw signal. The Amp-Channel is used with the O2k-Fluo LED2-Module and the O2k-NO Amp-Module.
  3. pX channel with electric potential (volt [V]) as the primary and raw signal (BNC plug for the ion sensitive electrode, ISE; and separate plug for the pX reference electrode, Ref).

Output

The focus of the output of the O2k-Fluo LED2-Module depends on the specific fluorophore. Output type A, B, or C, or any combination may relate to the primary level of interest.

A: Concentration (e.g. Ca2+).
B: Flow, flux, rate (e.g. H2O2 production).
C: Force, potential (e.g. TMRM and Safranin for mt-membrane potential).
