Product catalog summary
Overview: The document introduces the OxyCycler GT4181N, an advanced gasotransmitter incubation system designed for precise control of nitric oxide (NO) in cell culture research. It addresses the limitations of traditional chemical NO donors by offering automated and reproducible NO exposure.
Key Features:
  • Precise NO Control: The system allows for dynamic or static exposures of NO, simulating physiological and pathophysiological conditions.
  • NO2 Management: Automated sensing and displacement prevent NO2 buildup, ensuring relevant and reproducible results.
  • Modular Flexibility: Compatible with standard C-Chambers and existing incubators, offering easy upgrades and maintenance.
System Components:
  • GT41 Controller: Manages O2, CO2, and RH levels.
  • GT81N Piggyback Controller: Controls NO levels and limits NO2 accumulation.
  • Hot Swap Multipod Adapter: Provides microbial barrier filters and facilitates easy maintenance.
Safety Considerations:
  • Ensure gas tanks are in well-ventilated areas and use gas mixtures that do not exceed OSHA danger levels.
  • Check all connections for leaks and minimize gasotransmitter control setpoints and duration.
  • Ambient sensors and optional safety hoods are available for monitoring and managing gasotransmitter levels.
Performance and Applications:
  • Supports hypoxic stress modeling for diseases and preconditioning cells for implantation.
  • Allows for graded hypoxia and acute hyperoxia modeling to study cellular responses.
Technical Specifications:
  • Power: 12 VDC at 6.66A, with expected current draw around 2.0A.
  • Control Range: O2: 0.1-99.9%, CO2: 0.1-20.0%, NO: 0-50 PPM.
  • Accuracy: Varies by gas type and calibration.
  • Gas Supply: Requires compressed gas tanks or generators, with specific calibration gases for NO and NO2.
Installation and Operation:
  • Operated via computer software, allowing for programmable exposures and data logging.
  • Includes detailed installation schematic and operational parameters for sensors and controllers.

NO Subchamber Cell Culture System CytoCentric Products • First NO Gasotransmitter Cell Culture System • Precise Automated Exposures of NO • Dynamic or Static Exposures • Simulate Physiologic and Pathophysiologic conditions • Unprecedented NO Induced Phenotypes • Keeps Unwanted NO2 Side Product Within Limits The GT series all use the same multipod adapter plate. This attaches to a C-Chamber and sits within your incubator. Single Chamber 0-50ppm NO/NO2 Control ADVANCED GASOTRANSMITTER INCUBATION Nitric oxide (NO) is one of the most widely studied cell gasotransmitters, but traditionally has been difficult to work with in cell culture research. Until now the only way to dose NO in cell cultures previously was with a chemical that reacted to produce or “donate” NO. Chemical NO donors are messy and crude. Exposures possible with NO donors are limited. Every attempt is difficult to control and even more difficult to reproduce. Now, with the OxyCycler GT4181N, for the first time, you can precisely and automatically control NO. NO culture. Any dose and duration to cells in culture can simply be programmed, without the hassle and limitations of chemical donors. With the click of a mouse, any exposure can be precisely reproduced. UNLIMITED PROGRAMMED, DYNAMIC EXPOSURES Consisting of a GT41 which provides the common O2, CO2, and RH control, and the modular GT81N piggyback controller, which provides the NO, a subchamber culture system controlled by the OxyCycler GT4181N is the most advanced and reliable method for MODULAR FLEXIBILITY The controller is compatible and will fit any standard size C-Chamber. The entire system will fit any existing incubator. In addition, an unwanted side product that forms from NO and O2 is NO2. This nuisance gas can be prevented from building up in your culture chamber by automated sensing and displacement in real time to limit the concentration of NO2. This is essential for relevant and reproducible results of NO exp

Oxycycler GT4181N-3

Hypoxic stress can model components of many severe diseases such as heart attacks, strokes, asthma, or epilepsy. Frequency, duration and degree of drops are all adjustable. Cells destined for implantation will experience hypoxia and may be better prepared if they are conditioned to it before implantation. Ischemia may also be protected by conditioning. The OxyCycler GT4181N can easily run any preconditioning profile. Acute Hyperoxia Graded Hypoxia Model step reduction in oxygen, similar to altitude acclimation, to gradually condition cells for hypoxic upregulation of gene expression. The rate...
