moorVMS-ION: Iontophoresis Controller for Precise Transdermal Drug Delivery
Iontophoresis is a transdermal drug delivery technique used primarily in research to deliver vasoactive drugs through the skin, facilitating the accurate assessment of endothelial and smooth muscle function.
Typically, non-lipophilic drugs such as acetylcholine chloride and sodium nitroprusside struggle to penetrate the skin barrier. Iontophoresis overcomes this challenge by employing a small electrical current, passing ions of the drug directly into the skin.
The moorVMS-ION iontophoresis controller ensures this current is precisely controlled, offering consistent, measurable stimulation to microcirculation when used alongside Moor Instruments’ advanced monitoring and imaging equipment.
Key Benefits:
- Proven Reliability: Used by researchers for consistent, clearly defined results.
- Cost Efficiency: Reusable chambers significantly reduce ongoing consumable expenses.
- Comprehensive Compatibility: Integrates seamlessly with Moor Instruments’ blood flow and oxygenation monitors, imagers, and software, providing a complete research solution.
Compatible Moor Instruments Products:
- Monitors: moorVMS-LDF, moorVMS-OXY
- Imagers: moorFLPI-2, moorLDI2-IR, moorLDI2-HIR
- Software: moorVMS-PC
Disclaimer:
The moorVMS-ION iontophoresis controller is intended solely for research and is not suitable for hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) treatment or drug delivery for therapeutic purposes.
