The Agilent Seahorse XF HS Mini analyzer measures and reports the oxygen consumption rate (OCR), proton efflux rate (PER) or extracellular acidification rate (ECAR), as well as ATP production rates of live cells in an eight-well miniplate format. These measurements are critical elements of energy metabolism and vital indicators of mitochondrial health, toxicity, and overall cellular (dys) function. Together, these measurements provide a systems-level view of cellular metabolic function in cultured cells and ex vivo samples.

The XF HS Mini analyzer is easy to set up and operate and has excellent OCR/PER precision. It is also compatible with the XF HS miniplate, which can generate robust assay signals using three times fewer cells compared to the XFp miniplate—making it good for studies when biological materials are limited.
