Microinjectors And Microinjection Accessories

Pneumatic Microinjectors connect to and are controlled by pressurized gas. This allows one to easily control a large volume of liquid. Pneumatic control also helps one avoid maintenance issues common to hydraulic injectors like topping up or refilling with oil and removing air bubbles in the system. These models are generally recommended for use with placement on the cell holding side.

Motorized Microinjectors can inject small volumes at fixed speed reproducibly and precisely with control via foot switch. This is important especially in controlled experiments where the results of different injections need to be comparable. Another advantage of motorized microinjectors is that they minimize vibrations. These injectors range from a simple economical one-function model to a multi-functional model which includes remote control, separate injection pressure, holding pressure, and filling pressures.

Syringe Microinjectors allow for tradition microinjection as well as easy injection of larger volumes of liquid. They allow precise control of both injection and aspiration. Some models are recommended for use on the injection side while others are recommended for use in being placed on the cell holding side. Some syringes are of an oil hydraulic type while others are pneumatic in function.
