The global leader in innovative products for tissue blood flow and oxygen assessment

During the course of my clinical studies examining the vascular complications associated with diabetes I have used a number of Moor Instruments, ranging from laser Doppler products, skin heaters and iontophoresis controllers. Their equipment has been invaluable to my research and have contributed to research studies that have examined the mechanisms underlying vascular dysfunction in diabetes and prediabetes as well as evaluating the impact of therapeutic interventions on the development and progression of these complications. Moor Instruments have consistently provided excellent help and support for my research.

We bought a moorFLPI-2 two-dimensional imaging system to measure the cerebral blood flow (CBF) of adult mice during and after hypoxic-ischemic insults. We found this to be a powerful, yet extremely easy-to-use system that provides a global view of CBF alterations in various conditions. With this system, not only we can see CBF alterations in both hemispheres in real-time and without opening the skull, but also we can quantify the average flow units in any region-of-interest over any segment of the entire recording, which can run more than hours without freezing the computer. In a nutshell, moorFLPI-2 is the most user-friendly system for studying cerebral blood flow regulation in rodents.

I have been using Moor Instruments laser Doppler systems for over 20 years, having purchased 3 imager systems, a full field perfusion imager and several iontophoresis systems. The equipment has provided excellent tools for exploring human microvascular function in a non-invasive manner. The company has always been extremely helpful and cooperative in accommodating my requirements and after-sales help has always been to a high standard. I expect to be using Moor Instrument’s technology for many years to come!
