Single-well devices designed to allow the user to observe signaling responses to strain in real time on a microscope stage.
Tension Application:
The StageFlexer® is designed to strain cells in monolayer while viewing the cellular activity with an upright microscope. The Inverted StageFlexer® device allows observation with an inverted microscope.
Compression Application:
The StagePresser™ is designed to compress a single tissue sample or cell-seeded construct in 3D culture while viewing cellular activity under a microscope.
Fluid Shear Application:
The FlexFlow™ is a parallel plate laminar flow device designed to apply fluid shear stress and/or cyclic strain to cells in culture while providing a means for viewing cell activity under a microscope in real time.
At Flexcell® International Corporation, we understand that our commitment to the highest quality products and customer service depend on our ability to take part in research and development continuously. We invite you to read more about our ongoing research and development on cell stretching bioreactors in tissue engineering, cellular mechanics, gene and protein expression, cytomechanics, drug discovery, orthopedics, cardiovascular, and pulmonary research.
