Thank you for your interest in the Oroboros O2k – the modular two-chamber system for high-resolution fluorespirometry (HRFR). The O2k-Fluorometer is the Oxygraph-2k complete for high-resolution respirometry combined with fluorometry - user-friendly and ready for application.
The O2k-Fluorometer includes the Titration-Injection microPump (TIP2k) and supports optional add-on O2k-Modules, which can be added any time according to application-specific requirements: Various electrodes are available (TPP+, pH), and sensors are supported (such as NO, H2S). Auxiliary O2k-Tools complete the package for mitochondria and cell research.

Low running costs

High output - low running costs
  • Annual costs for O2k-spares are less than € 1,000 based on long-term experience with the O2k (e.g. spare glass chamber, stoppers).
  • The OroboPOS sensor has a warranty of 24 months and a life span of more than 10 years (see our Bioblast wiki on the appropriate handling of the POS sensor: POS Sensor Service
  • A OroboPOS membrane replacement is not required over periods of several months and other small parts such as sealing rings or gaskets do not need to be replaced for one year or more. The costs are therefore less than € 20 per year.
  • MiR05-Kit (new): Calculate 5 ml per run with two O2k-chambers, this yields € 0.56 per run.
  • Other chemicals not supplied by OROBOROS INSTRUMENTS: Substrates, uncouplers, inhibitors, specific effectors, fluorophores.
  • Washing with deionized or distilled water, with pure ethanol (removing inhibitors) and 70% ethanol (sterilization, storage).
  • In applications of specific O2k-Modules, spare sensors (e.g. glass pH electrode) may increase the costs by € 700 to € 1,400 per year.
