Cell Stretching Systems

 

  • High Reproducibility
    The high-precision, high-torque stepping motor in the stretch unit allows for a consistent range of motion at a variety of speeds and stretch ratios. This motion stability, combined with the superior characteristics of the silicone film chamber, produces mechanical stretching that is highly reproducible, regardless of the stretching speed or distance.
  • Wide Range of Stretch Patterns
    We can configure the system for eight different settings for the stretch ratio — degree of stretch desired — and eight for the frequency of the stretch movement. This results in 64 pre-programmed stretching patterns. We can manufacture custom patterns at high speed or stretch ratios at an extra cost.

Cell Pressure Systems

Apply Pressure to Cultured Cells

The Strex cell pressure system can be run in either continuous or cyclic mode. The system includes one pressure chamber, a control box, a regulator, and vacuum tubes. Pressure can range from zero to 250 for our standard model, but we can create custom systems to accommodate higher pressure.

STREX TECHNOLOGY
 
The STREX Cell Stretching System induces mechanical stimuli to cells growing in culture by stretching and compressing them, thereby providing an environment similar to in vivo conditions.

This is Strex’s automated cell stretching system, which includes the main unit and a control unit. It is most commonly used in mechanotransduction and stretching experiments.
