About Our Tension Systems

Our FX-6000™ Tension System is a computer-regulated bioreactor that uses positive and negative air pressure to apply cyclic or static mechanical strain to cells cultured on flexible-bottomed culture plates. The FX-6000™ Tension System allows researchers to simulate in vivo tissue strains and frequencies in vitro that mimic in vivo conditions in cells from muscle, lung, heart, vascular vessels, skin, tendon, ligament, cartilage, and bone.

Application of equibiaxial strain with Flexcell® Tension Systems using Bioflex® culture plates
Our cell stretching bioreactor systems are great for the stimulation of cells in cell culture using mechanical strain. Using our pneumatic stretching protocol system instead of a motor-driven or electrical system allows you to avoid any confounding vibrational strain, or electronic (E), or magnetic fields (B).

How Our Tension Bioreactors Work

Flexcell® Tension Systems are patented, computer-regulated bioreactors that apply cyclic or static strain to cells cultured in vitro.

We designed Flexcell® Tension Systems to help investigators analyze biochemical changes in response to tensile load on a variety of cell culture applications, including muscle, lung, heart, vascular vessels, skin, tendon, ligament, cartilage, and bone.

Our Tension Systems work with UniFlex® (Uniaxial strain), BioFlex®, HT BioFlex® (Equibiaxial strain), Tissue Train® and CellSoft® BioFlex® culture plates.

Flex Jr.™ Tension System

Our Flex Jr.™ Tension System allows you to stretch cells in a single baseplate or in real-time with a microscopy device. The Flex Jr.™ is a smaller capacity, computer-regulated cell stretching bioreactor system that applies cyclic or static tensile strains to cells cultured in vitro. In vivo tissue strains and frequencies are simulated to view real-time responses in cells from muscle, lung, heart, blood vessels, skin, tendon, ligament, cartilage, and bone.

Tissue Train® 3D Culture System

Our Tissue Train® 3D Culture System is a computer-regulated cell stretching bioreactor system that allows users to create 3-dimensional cell-seeded gels and apply uniaxial or equibiaxial tensile strains to these gels. The Tissue Train® 3D Culture System is a uniaxial system that allows researchers to apply user-defined strain regimens to simulate heart rate, walking, running, and other dynamic exercise patterns to tissue constructs. This will enable you to build bioartificial tissue samples of skin, tendon, ligament, etc. up to 35 mm in length.
