Flex Jr.™ Tension System
Product Description:
The 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 (1 culture plate with a single baseplate), 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.
Stretch cells in a single baseplate or in real-time with a microscopy device:
- Smaller capacity, computer-regulated bioreactor that applies cyclic or static tensile strains to cells cultured in vitro.
- Regulated vacuum pressure deforms flexible membranes in a single Flexcell® 6-well culture plate and in Flexcell® microscopy devices.
- In vivo tissue strains and frequencies simulated to view real-time responses in cells from muscle, lung, heart, blood vessels, skin, tendon, ligament, cartilage, and bone.
- State-of-the-art digital valve automatically regulates and maintains pressure for a specified strain regimen.
- System works with StageFlexer®, StageFlexer® Jr., and FlexFlow™ microscope devices.
- Multiple frequency, amplitude, and waveform changes can be programmed in one regimen.
- Available waveforms: static, sinusoidal, heart stimulation, triangular, square and custom
System includes:
- Flex Jr.™ Tension FlexLink®
- Laptop computer
- FlexSoft® Flex Jr.™ Software
- Single Plate Baseplate Kit
- Tubing and Adaptor Kit

Tissue Train® 3D Culture System
The Tissue Train® 3D Culture System is a computer-regulated cell stretching bioreactor system that allows users to create 3-dimensional cell-seeded hydrogels and apply uniaxial or equibiaxial tensile strains to 3D constructs. The Tissue Train® 3D Culture System iallows 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.
