1205A - Intact Muscle Test System - in vitro, vertical muscle orientation, 5N or 10N maximum force
Complete test system for evaluating the mechanical
characteristics of intact muscle with peak forces of up to 5N or 10N (dependent on model of 305C that is used). The muscle
preparation is held vertically in a water-jacketed bath. Both force and length
are controlled and measured with this system. Length-tension, force-velocity,
force-stimulation frequency, stiffness and work loop protocols can all be
measured with this system.
305C
Muscle Lever
For the measurement of the dynamic physical
properties of all types of muscle and connective tissue. In addition to
biological specimens, they can also be used to evaluate natural and synthetic
polymers, fibres, films and coatings.
701B Stimulator The model 701B is a high
power, bi-polar, current pulse stimulator that can provide either positive,
negative or alternating voltage (bi-phase) pulses of up to 80V at up to 1
ampere of current.
Series 604A Signal Interface
Connects length controllers, force transducers, and stimulators to the A/D system (600A or Microsoft Windows computer running DMC/DMA).
