Accurately measure the tensile mechanical properties of soft natural tissues and biomaterials.

Using dielectrophoresis (DEP), you can now select only the viable cells. Use this system for Hybridoma.

Cover-glass bottom for observing and growing cells in imaging related research

For more than 100 years pharmacologists and physiologists have been studying cardiac and smooth muscle in tissue baths. WPI’s multi-channel isolated tissue bath system was developed over a period of several years in collaboration with top cardiovascular research scientists. The result is a feature packed, cost-effective system for the in vitro study of vascular and non-vascular smooth muscle. Tissue holders are also available for cardiac muscle and other tissue preparations.

WPI's programmable 8-channel perfusion system was designed for single channel and whole-cell patch preparations. It offers the best combination of performance and value.

Systems for conducting tissue bath experiments

During the last two decades TEER measurements have become universally established as the most convenient, reliable and non-destructive method to evaluate and monitor the growth of epithelial tissue cultures in vitro. The confluence of the cellular monolayer is quickly determined by a sharp increase in TEER. TEER measurement technology, which was first introduced by WPI in the mid-1980's, has since been perfected and expanded to include a range of TEER related manual and automatic instrumentation.

Choose from manual, motorized, or programmable microtomes to prepare live tissue sections for physiological, pharmacological and biochemical research.

The Ussing system offers reseachers a quick, effective means of making low-resistance electrical connections to the Ussing chamber without the need of long agar bridges or Calomel half-cells.
