qpatch II | sophion bioscience
The redesigned QPatch automated patch clamp system has an easy-to-use interface that allows scientists to run cell tests on multiple substances to aid in ion channel research and drug discovery.
Background
The redesign allowed for many new features and improvements, while addressing the various shortcomings in the previous version. Although it was to build upon the existing framework, we succeeded in improving build quality while reducing overall cost and manufacturing time. And usability was enhanced with greater ease of use, installation and servicing.
The brief provided an opportunity to update the brand’s design DNA to feature an extruded base shape with rounded major edges, clean, precise lines and surfaces, and a welcoming, lab-friendly colour scheme.
