| [[File:Top 10 reasons for Oroboros.jpg|400px|right]]
| |
| :::: <big>Oroboros - as a driving force in mitochondrial physiology - extends the analytical and diagnostic power of high-resolution respirometry by integration of NADH- and Q-redox monitoring in the '''NextGen-O2k'''. We aim at establishing the Oroboros quality control management for dissemination to our worldwide O2k-Network laboratories. This will become an effective contribution to address the acute ''reproducibility crisis'' of scientific investigation. In the spirit of Open Science and global networking, we will enable data sharing across projects and institutions in an Open Access database on mitochondrial physiology and pathology, to resolve the ''inflation crisis'' and ultimately the ''value-impact crisis'' of present academic publication. This will support key developments in mitochondrial medicine. In addition, we expand our business to algal biotechnology and ecology with the photobiology module of the NextGen-O2k, widening our focus from medicine to environment and climate.</big>

| |
| :::: Between 1992 and 1994, Oroboros Instruments released its core technology for '''high-resolution respirometry (HRR)''', the '''Oxygraph-2k''' or '''O2k''', for real-time monitoring of oxygen consumption of mitochondria, tissues, and living cells. Dissolved oxygen is measured using high-resolution polarographic oxygen sensors. Its main advantages are the unique signal stability and resolution of oxygen. HRR is the core technology present in every single of the devices and it will remain the basis of the NextGen-O2k.
| |
| :::: In 2012, the updated version of the O2k was launched, the '''O2k-FluoRespirometer'''. The integrated Smart Fluo-Sensors combine fluorescence excitation and detection of defined wavelengths that in combination with fluorophores allow for the measurement of additional mitochondrial parameters, such as membrane potential, H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> production, calcium concentration, and ATP production.
| |
| :::: The unique '''software DatLab''' has been developed for data acquisition and analysis. DatLab allows the researcher to perform calibrations (including automatic barometric and temperature adjustments), background correction, experimental SUIT (substrate-uncoupler-inhibitor-titration) protocols and data analysis.
| |
|
| |
| [[File:NextGen-O2k_Q-module and PB-module.jpg|350px|right|NextGen-O2k Modules]]
| |
| :::: With the O2k core technology, developed exclusively by Oroboros for high-resolution measurement of oxygen flux, the '''NextGen-O2k''' was developed.
| |
| :::: The NextGen-O2k is a MultiSensor all-in-one instrument for in-depth studies of (''1'') the mitochondrial role in human diseases, and (''2'') mitochondria and chloroplasts ability in regulating algal growth and metabolite production rates.
| |
| :::: It integrates 2 new modules: (+1) A Q-Module to measure Q-redox states, and (+2) a PB-Module to study PhotoBiology.
| |
| :::: In just one device researchers obtain a snapshot of the mitochondrial/chloroplast metabolic profile, saving on experimental time, reagents and samples, minimizing errors and ensuring reproducible and accurate results. In addition, the instruments offer the highest oxygen sensitivity (5 nM detection limit) with an exceptional resolution (wide oxygen concentration range, between 0-1,000 ΞΌM) and robustness (>10 years lifespan), being superior to any other market option.
