What Is Patch Clamp Technology?

Patch clamp technology is a precision technique used to study ionic currents and membrane potentials in single cells. It enables the detailed examination of ion channel activity in neurons, cardiac cells, and other excitable tissues, facilitating breakthroughs in neuroscience, pharmacology, and disease research.

Through micromanipulation and voltage/current clamp configurations, researchers capture minute signals for in-depth biophysical and physiological assessments. Physi Analytica serves North America’s B2B sector with premium, reliable patch clamp systems—combining powerful hardware, intuitive software, and secure cloud platforms to support demanding laboratory environments and complex research goals.
