OxyLite and OxyLite Pro by Oxford Optronix

"The results we have obtained from both of these devices and their corresponding probes have been very reproducible. The equipment is easy to use and maintain. A lot of our studies focus on oxygen delivery in small and large animals and this equipment has allowed us to obtain critical data in our studies. Any time we have had questions or project ideas, the team at Oxford Optronix has always helped us come up with practical solutions."

"The monitor - easy to use, clear output on screen and reliable. Oxygen probes - the probes give consistent reliable measurements over days. I would be happier if the probes lasted longer. They can often be used only once or twice, which make experiments expensive, especially if one is using multiple probes."

"Oxylite is very easy to use and has shown to be reliable in its measurements. We always finish by exposing the probe to ambient air and the readings are very consistent with only a slight decrease towards the end of the probes lifetime."

"We use this device in combination with implantable optic fibers that allow local oxygen measurements in the (delicate) brain areas we're interested in, in parallel with electrophysiology. Results have been great and the ease of use of the OxyLite is outstanding. The device and fibers are costly, yet for our needs (minimal invasiveness, flexibel, suitable for chronic recordings) the investment is worth it. Lastly, Optronix's service is great."

"The Oxylite is easy to used and gives accurate information about the levels of dissolved oxygen in buffers, solutions and cell cultures. It is a very useful piece of equipment for cell biologists interested in the impact of levels of atomspheric oxygen on the growth and behavior of cultured cells."

"I have been using the OxyLite for ~5 years to make in vivo tissue pO2 measurements. It has provided invaluable data that has opened up new areas of research to my lab. In fact, we have recently purchased a second OxyLite Pro for the purpose of expanding our research capabilities. This instrument is highly recommended."

"We have been very satisfied with this product after using several products from other manufacturers. The OxyLite calibration is by far the biggest strength - the sensors come out of their package and work, and they work accurately. Other systems that we've had required calibration, and despite trying to be as careful as possible, the calibration never resulted in accurate tissue readings. With prior devices we tried both gaseous and liquid phase calibration with marginal results. The OxyLite, however, comes calibrated and it is phenomenally accurate. I have no idea how they calibrate their probes, but whatever they do works. The OxyLite machine is more expensive than the other devices that we tried, but the probes are much cheaper, and the fact that it gives us accurate readings makes it worthwhile. I can't tell you how many hours and dollars we wasted trying to use other systems with baked on phosphor coatings that would never give us accurate results. Plus, the software and interface of the OxyLite is great - especially if you get one with the LCD screen. You don't need to plug it into a computer, and they actually update their software on a regular basis. The older systems we were using had not updated their software in ages - one ran on Windows 95 and the other on XP - and this was in the year 2017. I can't stress how glad we are to have purchased this machine - we're no longer fussing with calibrations and troubleshooting and are back to doing experiments and publishing."

"Easy to set up and use, reliable data collection and very responsive and personable care and technical support available."

"The complete system is very user-friendly, especially the operation of the touch screen which is an absolute relief."
