A computer-regulated bioreactor that uses positive air pressure to deform tissue samples or 3-D cell cultures in vitro, simulating biological compression conditions.
A remote tension or compression unit that works in conjunction with the FX-5000™ Tension or Compression systems allowing the user to simultaneously run two different regimens on two different baseplates.
Features:
Can perform all of the functions of the FX-5000™ Tension and Compression systems (depending on FlexLink® model purchased).
Four FlexLinks® can be connected in series to the central controller.
A compact strain device designed to accept membranes removed from the well of a BioFlex®, Tissue Train®, or UniFlex® culture plate and observe signaling responses to strain in real time.
Features:
StageFlexer® Jr. consists of a single one inch well designed to accept a membrane removed from the BioFlex®, Tissue Train®, or UniFlex® plate.
The user can continue to manipulate cells while observing them in real time with a microscope.
The membrane can be deformed using the Flexcell® FX-5000™ or Flex Jr.™ Tension systems.
A single-well embodiment of the BioFlex® culture plate designed to allow the user to observe signaling responses to strain in real time on a microscope stage.
Features:
Applies strain to cells in real time on your microscope stage.
Consists of a single 35 mm well with a matrix bonded silicone rubber membrane, similar to the
membrane in the BioFlex® culture plates.
The membrane can be deformed using the Flexcell® FX-5000™ or Flex Jr.™ Tension systems.
