Patchlinerm Research Grant

Fast. Flexible. Powerful. Yours!

What if patch clamp could be fast and simple, but where you are still fully in control?

Have you got experiments that you want to do but haven’t been able to start because of lack of resources or access to patch clamp equipment? Do you feel intimidated by the complex equipment required for a conventional patch rig and want to accelerate your experiments recording multiple cells simultaneously?

You have come to the right place!

The Patchlinerm is not just a multi-cell electrophysiology system, it is your shortcut to faster data generation, more ambitious experiments, and the freedom to explore ion channel biology and biophysics. It combines the superior data quality of manual patch clamp with speed and ease of use.

Apply now for the opportunity to receive a Patchlinerm system in your laboratory for 6 months, including consumables and expert application support, completely free of charge.

Why should you apply?

What will
you do?

Patchlinerm gives researchers a simpler way to perform patch clamp experiments, without taking control away from the user.

Whether you are developing a new ion channel assay, expanding from manual patch clamp, or looking for a practical entry into electrophysiology, Patchlinerm offers a flexible and approachable solution for your research.

Its small footprint and plug-and-play setup fit easily into research labs, making it ideal for teams that want high-quality electrophysiology data without the complexity of high-throughput screening systems.

“The newly developed small Patchliner device is remarkably compact and appears user-friendly, allowing seamless integration into a variety of experimental workflows. Its versatile design, the Bluetooth pipette and the quality of the amplifier will offer significant potential for both academic and industrial research.” Jean-Francois Rolland
Axxam SpA
Milan, Italy “If I had to describe the Patchlinerm in one word, it would be fast. From day one, we designed it to combine speed with simplicity. I believe this little power tool will become an indispensable piece of equipment for any lab that needs fast results, easy to use for any lab staff or student, suited for almost all types of patch clamp experiments.” Nadine Becker
Nanion Technologies
Munich “We have now developed a microchip featuring 8 fully integrated, advanced patch-clamp amplifiers on an 8 x 11 mm chip. We are proud that Nanion is using this technology in their new, state-of-the art automated patch clamp instruments.” Federico Thei
