O2k and HRR
- OROBOROS Oxygraph-2k - unique for high-resolution respirometry (HRR)
- O2k - tested and trusted
- OROBOROS Oxygraph-2k - unique for high-resolution respirometry (HRR)
The O2k for high-resolution respirometry
The OROBOROS Oxygraph-2k provides a unique high-resolution approach for the monitoring of cellular and mitochondrial respiratory function: high-resolution respirometry (HRR). Considering mitochondria as the powerhouses of the cell, HRR introduced the concept of cell ergometry. Are your cells MitoFit?
HRR is applied world-wide in areas ranging from fundamental bioenergetics to the analysis of mitochondrial and metabolic diseases, advancing the rapidly growing field of preventive mitochondrial medicine. Mitochondrial fitness needs to be monitored in a variety of age-related health risks, including cardiovascular and degenerative diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimerâs, Parkinsonâs, Huntingtonâs), and several types of cancer.

HRR by the OROBOROS O2k is based on a radically different systems approach to polarographic measurement of oxygen dynamics. HRR rests on several tightly connected instrumental features and concepts integrated by the DatLab software, providing real-time display of oxygen concentration and respiration (oxygen flux). The mechanics, critical selection of materials, and state-of-the-art electronics provide the basis of signal stability of an optimized polarographic oxygen sensor, in an electronically controlled thermal environment with high temperature stability. Calibrations and instrumental controls follow standard operating procedures, with highly automatic real-time analysis by the DatLab software. Scientific support is complementary to the approach of HRR.
While the OROBOROS O2k provides the instrumental basis for HRR, successful operation at high accuracy up to the limit of detection depends on a professional application by the technician, scientist or student. Participation in a hands-on introductory O2k-Workshop is recommended to save time and gain from the experience obtained over many years of application in various settings.
From the O2k to the Power-O2k
Multiple O2k-units are offered as a âPower-O2k Systemâ for HRR combined with high-throughput - at high output.
