Calibre Scientific microinjector FemtoJet 4i integrated compressor

The FemtoJet 4i is a versatile electronic microinjector, ideal for volumes ranging from femtolitre to microlitre.

Description of the FemtoJet 4i microinjector

Equipped with an integrated compressor, it guarantees an independent and continuous pressure supply, facilitating injections into both adherent and suspended cells.

Its intuitive interface and programmable functions ensure fast, accurate and reproducible micro-injections, particularly when coupled with a micromanipulator (TransferMan® 4r, InjectMan® 4).

Features of the FemtoJet 4i microinjector

  • Integrated compressor: independent pressure supply, with no need for an external source
  • Programmable injection from femtolitre to microlitre, for great versatility
  • Simple interface: clear control buttons, Inject & Clean function, optional foot pedal
  • Electronic connection to TransferMan 4r, InjectMan 4, InjectMan NI 2 micromanipulators
  • Compact, space-saving design
  • Compatible with most standard micromanipulation systems
  • Power supply: 100-240 V ±10%, 50-60 Hz, foot switch included
