The EVOM™ Auto automated TEER measurement system with the GxP module powered by TotalLab ensures that your data security complies with FDA 21 CFR Part 11 requirements. If you have customized parameters like electrode placement for a plate profile, you may reset all the parameter to their factory default settings. We’ll show you how.

EVOM™ Auto with the GxP module lets you perform automated transepithelial electrical (TEER) resistance with confidence that your data security complies with the FDA 21 CFR Part 11 regulations. Here we will see how to run or stop a scheduled measurement sequence.

WPI’s EVOM™ Auto simplifies transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) measurement by automating measurements in 24- and 96-well plates. A GxP module powered by TotalLab is available to meet the FDA’s 21 CFR Part 11 compliance regulations. Before making measurements, you need to stabilize your electrodes. See how here.

EVOM™ Auto automates TEER measurement, and it is now available with a GxP module to meet the FDA’s 21 CFR Part 11 compliance regulations. Here we will see how to create a new project file in the EVOM™ Auto GxP client software. Two options are available for the GxP software, and creating a project works the same way in both Option A and Option B versions. However, you may only create a project with files in the EVOM™ Auto GXP Option A software. Option B only lets you store EVOM™ Auto data files in the project folder.

WPI EndOhm chambers are used with WPI's EVOM2 meter for making TEER (transepithelial electrical resistance) measurements. Here Subhra shows the difference between hanging cell culture inserts and standing cell culture inserts.

Petri cell culture dishes like WPI’s FluoroDishes™ are commonly used in laboratories, but they require precision and care to ensure the accurate results of your work. Let’s look at several common mistakes made with cell culture dishes and how you can avoid them.

When your transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) measurement processes require 21 CFR Part 11 compliance to satisfy FDA requirements, WPI’s GxP module for use with the EVOM™ Auto is perfect. Powered by TotalLab, the software database ensured that your EVOM™ Auto TEER data is tracked and stored with appropriate electronic signatures and an extensive audit trail. EVOM™ Auto can be used to perform automated TEER measurement on both 24- and 96-well plates. In this video you can see how to prepare your data for downloading.

WPI’s EVOM™ line of transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) measurement systems is the industry standard with thousands of citations in peer-reviewed journals spanning over 40 years. Our newest automated TEER measurement unit, the EVOM™ Auto, works with both 24- and 96-well plates, and now it is available with an optional GxP module to ensure 21 CFR Part 11 compliance to satisfy FDA requirements. In this video you can see how to run, pause, and stop an experiment.

EVOM™ Auto GxP Module is an add-on for the EVOM™ Auto Automated TEER measurement system that ensure 21 CFR Part 11 compliance to satisfy FDA requirements. The EVOM™ Auto is used for making transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) measurements when you are testing for cell confluency or barrier integrity when you are doing drug absorption studies, tissue engineering, disease model, QC of cell-based assays and more. In this video we will create a sequence to use with an EVOM™ Auto that has the GxP module.

EVOM™ GxP compliance Module is 21 CFR Part 11 compliant software that meets the FDA's requirements for electronic records and signatures. It work with the EVOM™ Auto autosampler.  In this video we launch the EVOM™ Auto GxP software from within EVOM™ Auto GxP Client.

Transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) is a methodology that has been used for several decades to measure the resistance across a monolayer of cells to evaluate the barrier function of a cell layer. Historically, TEER measurements were utilized as a basic biological tool as researchers evaluated the permeability of biological layers and the functionality of tight junctions between various cell types. More recently, the utility of TEER measurements has expanded into new and diverse applications in a variety of fields. New applications for TEER measurement that have recently emerged include drug delivery, toxicology, organ-on-chip technology, and quality control of cell therapies. Traditionally used to study the barrier function of epithelial tissues in vitro, TEER has become a versatile and translational tool that has provided valuable insights into the integrity and permeability of complex engineered cell and tissue models as well as quality control measurements for cell-based products...more

WPI is working with Dr. Ramkumar Menon, director of UTMB Obstetrics and Gynecology’s Division of Basic Science and Translational Research, who is using Transepithelial Electrical Resistance (TEER) to explore ways to minimize pre-term births.

World Precision Instruments is the leading manufacture of benchtop TEER instrumentation including the original equipment manufacturer of Millipore Millicell® ERS-2 (Part number MERS00002) and Millipore Millicell® ERS (Part number MERS00001).

Synopsis: World Precision Instruments (WPI) has manufactured TEER instrumentation, including the EVOM2, EVOM3, EVOM™ Manual, and Millicell^® ERS-2 (a WPI OEM product), for over 3 decades. Millipore’s Millicell^® ERS 3.0 recently became available and is not manufactured by WPI, nor validated or certified to be accurate for TEER measurement. Users are cautioned to ensure their TEER measurements are taken using a WPI manufactured and validated product, like EVOM™ Manual, the proven gold standard for TEER measurement, to ensure accuracy and reproducibility.
