The Seahorse XFe Analyzer is managed and maintained by the UCSF Mouse Metabolism Core and is located in the PCAT space. To use this technology, you must book through the iLab website.
The instrumentation is used to collect data on cellular processes and pathologies. The Seahorse XFe Extracellular Flux Analyzer provides the capability to examine the intact and functional cellular system, enabling comprehensive investigations into metabolic pathways, substrate preference and utilization, catabolic and anabolic processes, and metabolic phenotypes. The Seahorse XFe Analyzer simultaneously measures the two major energy pathways of the cell — mitochondrial respiration and glycolysis — in live cells using a label-free, solid-state sensor cartridges in a microplate format. The Seahorse XFe Analyzer works with all cell types, including primary cells, cell lines, suspension cells, as well as islets, C. elegans, yeast, and isolated mitochondria.
