1500A - Small Intact Muscle Test System
Complete test system for evaluating the mechanical characteristics of small intact muscle, strips and fibres with peak forces of up to 100mN. The apparatus fits on an inverted microscope which allows for observation and fluorescence measurement (purchased seperately). Two bath plates are available for small and medium sized preparations. The temperature controlled bath is designed for perfusion and includes Platinum stimulation electrodes. Both force and length are controlled and measured with this system which allows complete mechanical characterization including length-tension, force-velocity, and stiffness measurement.
