[From Sophia + Ion: Greek σοφία, “wisdom” the ability to think and act using knowledge, experience, understanding and insight ... , the capacity of judging rightly] Sophion was founded in the year 2000 by a group of passionate electrophysiologists, all having the shared purpose of making patch clamping objective and independent of user skills to provide faster, more accurate and objective patch clamping results. “To take the voodoo out of patch clamping”. The Sophion product range offers the most flexible automated patch clamp systems on the market today with QPatch and Qube384. The QPatch product line consists of three fully automated patch clamp systems, QPatch 8, QPatch 16 and QPatch HT. The systems cover a wide range of throughput needs and provide the user with genuine whole-cell patch-clamp data based on true gigaseals. The Qube is the next-generation high-throughput system for ion channel screening, intended for use in laboratories with a need for thousands of data points per day. The Qube finally bridges the gap between high-throughput and high quality in ion channel assays.
