Automatic cell stretching system STB-190-XY

uniaxialbiaxial

Stage-mountable system with biaxial stretching and compression functionality. Simultaneously stretches cells in a single chamber in one or two directions while allowing for imaging pre- and post-stretch. 64 available preprogrammed stretching patterns to save time. Bidirectional stretch parameters included, however uniaxial stretch is possible too. Biaxial system with 4cm chamber size allows for: Cytoskeleton rearrangements. Gene/Protein Expression. Cell Morphology studies. Biaxial Cell Stretching System Stage-mountable for imaging before and after stretching Features Capable of bidirectional stretching cells in culture; functions by applying a stress load to cells growing in-vitro, provided that the microscope set up is compatible. Simultaneously stretches cells in a single chamber, in one or two directions while allowing for imaging before and after stretch. The system’s mechanical stretching unit operates inside an incubator atop a microscope, while the control unit and video output are placed outside. 64 available preprogrammed stretch patterns save researchers precious time and make it incredibly easy to get experiments started. Bidirectional stretch parameters included, however, the uniaxial stretch is possible as well. System Configuration Main Unit: Compatible with Nikon, Olympus, Zeiss, and Leica microscopes. Stage drawings are required for the necessary stage adapter to be built. Control Unit: Actuates the main unit to implement the desired stretching pattern for one cell culture.
