xCELLigence® RTCA uses noninvasive electrical impedance monitoring to quantify cell proliferation, morphology change, and attachment quality in a label-free, real-time manner. The instrument is placed in a standard CO2 cell culture incubator and interfaces via a cable with analysis and control units that are housed outside the incubator. User friendly software allows for real-time control and monitoring of the instrument, and includes real-time data display and analysis functions.
By skipping the guesswork associated with end-point assays and eliminating the time- and labor-intensive steps of traditional cell-based assays, real-time cell analysis (RTCA) with the xCELLigence® RTCA vastly improves efficiency and overall productivity. By eliminating the need for labels/dyes, the physiological relevance of acquired data is maximized.

Monitor the Efficacy of Liquid Cancer Immunotherapies inside your incubator
Use xCELLigence Immunotherapy Kits with your real-time cell analysis (RTCA®) system for a non-invasive solution to a broad range of liquid cancer immunotherapies and suspension tumor cell killing applications.
Label-Free: Allowing for more physiological assay conditions; labeling or secondary assays aren’t required
Real-Time: Quantitative monitoring of both fast (hours) and slow (days) killing kinetics
Sensitive: Capable of evaluating low effector cell to target cell ratios that are physiologically relevant
Simple Workflow: Requires only the addition of effector cells to target cells (in the presence or absence of antibodies); homogeneous assay without additional sample handling
Automatic Data Plotting: RTCA software Pro enables facile data display and objective analysis, precluding the subjective data vetting that is common to imaging-based assays
