We have a new O2K High Resolution Respirometer
A huge thank-you to the University of Nottingham Research Priority Area Fund for supporting our bid for this piece of equipment! I had been eyeing up one of these for many months and there is already a long list of experiments and collaborations that are waiting to benefit from the data generated by this machine. Included with the machine is a place on a training workshop so off I went in the middle of December to Innsbruck, Austria to visit Erich Gnaiger and the team supporting MitoEAGLE. Many familiar faces and for me at last a chance to get fully immersed in three days of O2K respirometry. What a great workshop it was and while I was there my new machine was being readied for dispatch to Nottingham where we now have it on my bench in the lab. Cells are being grown and reagents assembled as we speak to get through a few test runs before we start our experiments. Innsbruck is a great city to visit and while we were there the first snows were threatening to fall - you could smell the ski slopes, and the mountains looked magnificent! Here are some photos of the group that attended the workshop taken at the Oroboros Instruments offices.
