| :::: [[OROBOROS INSTRUMENTS]] distributes the world-wide leading O2k-technology of high-resolution respirometry - '''O2k and HRR'''. The [[OROBOROS Company]] is fully scientifically oriented, with emphasis on continuous innovation. The extension of the [[Oxygraph-2k]] (O2k) to the [[O2k-Fluorometer]] has set a new standard for O2k-MultiSensor approaches (see [[OROBOROS O2k-Catalogue]]). The O2k is established internationally, with [[O2k-Publications: Topics |»{{#ask:[[Category:Publications]][[Instrument and method::Oxygraph-2k]] |format=count}} O2k-Publications]] in the scientific literature. OROBOROS has organized more than 100 international [[OROBOROS_Events#Next_O2k-Workshops |O2k-Workshops]]. The [[O2k-Network]] includes {{#ask:[[Category:O2k-Network]] |format=count}} Reference Laboratories in 45 countries.

| |
| :::: O2k is the acronym for the OROBOROS '''[[Oxygraph-2k]]''' and '''[[O2k-Fluorometer]]''' - the modular system for high-resolution respirometry and mitochondrial physiology. The O2k provides a unique high-resolution approach for the monitoring of cellular and mitochondrial respiratory function: [[high-resolution respirometry |high-resolution respirometry (HRR)]]. Considering mitochondria as the powerhouses of the cell, HRR introduced the concept of [[cell ergometry]]. Are your cells [[MitoFit]]?
| |
| | |
| :::: HRR is applied [[O2k-Network |world-wide]] in areas ranging from fundamental bioenergetics to the analysis of mitochondrial and metabolic diseases, advancing the rapidly growing field of preventive mitochondrial medicine. Mitochondrial fitness needs to be monitored in a variety of age-related health risks, including cardiovascular and degenerative diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s), and several types of cancer.

| |
| :::: HRR by the OROBOROS O2k is based on a radically different systems approach to polarographic measurement of oxygen dynamics. HRR rests on several tightly connected instrumental features and concepts integrated by the DatLab software, providing real-time display of oxygen concentration and respiration ([[oxygen flux]]). The mechanics, critical selection of materials, and state-of-the-art electronics provide the basis of signal stability of an optimized [[polarographic oxygen sensor]], in an electronically controlled thermal environment with high temperature stability. Calibrations and instrumental controls follow standard operating procedures, with highly automatic real-time analysis by the DatLab software. Scientific support is complementary to the approach of HRR.
