Build your scientific case

Clearly explaining why a specific technology is needed can be an important part of an instrumentation or research grant. We can provide information on the principles and capabilities of isothermal microcalorimetry, relevant applications, comparisons with alternative approaches, and scientific publications supporting the technology. We can also test your samples to demonstrate proof of concept and generate preliminary data to support your application.

Symcel Isothermal Microcalorimetry Testing-1

Choose the right IMC platform

Symcel offers two isothermal microcalorimetry (IMC) platforms to support different research needs.

  • The calScreener provides parallel measurement across 32 test positions at 30–40 °C, while calScreener+ combines this throughput with a wider 20–40 °C temperature range and superior thermal and signal stability.

  • The caloTrace offers the highest flexibility with 30 independently operated channels, a 20–40 °C temperature range and large sample volume testing. 

Our team can help you identify the system and configuration best suited to your research and funding application.
