xCELLigence System: E-Plate VIEW 96
Combine real-time impedance-based monitoring of cell
behavior with visual inspection in a single 96-well plate.
The new E-Plate VIEW 96 for xCELLigence RTCA SP
and MP Instruments features both microelectrodes that
measure cell response and a clear inspection window on
the well bottoms — enabling you to see cellular changes
(e.g., morphology, proliferative state) indicated by dynamic
monitoring with the xCELLigence System.
 Monitor cell activity continuously in real time.
 Measure cell responses with the xCELLigence
System and visualize those changes using
microscopes or automated cell-imaging platforms.
 Precisely identify the best time points for further
experiments (Figure 1).
Figure 1: Combine impedance-based, real-time monitoring with
microscopic optical detection. Cell proliferation and cell death were
continuously monitored using the xCELLigence System with the E-Plate
VIEW 96. The optimal time point for visual inspection was determined
and images were taken 24 hours after compound treatment using a Z16
Apo Microscope with light base (Leica Micro systems).

Figure 2: Easily visualize cells while measuring cell response with
xCELLigence System E-Plate VIEW technology. A modified version
of the standard E-Plate 96, the new E-Plate VIEW 96 enables image
acquisition using microscopes or automated cell-imaging systems.
For the modification, 4 rows of microelectrode sensors were removed
in each well to create a window for visualizing cells. Approximately 70%
of each well bottom is covered by the microelectrodes, providing cell
impedance measurements nearly identical to those obtained with the
standard E-Plate 96 (Figure 3). Both plate types can be used in parallel.

Figure 4: Observe cell status with the E-Plate VIEW 96. Pictures
were obtained using the Cellavista System for the brightfield views and
an upright microscope for the Crystal Violet staining. PC3-GFP cells
were observed under brightfield microscopy at 10x magnification.

Figure 3: Obtain similar sensitivity with the E-Plate 96 and E-Plate
VIEW 96. Different concentrations of PC3-GFP cells were seeded in
either a stan­d ard E-Plate 96 or an E-Plate VIEW 96, and continuously
monitored for 60 hours. Both plates gave similar Cell Index values.
