MicroElectrode Array Stretching Stimulating und Recording Equipment (MEASSuRE)
3 Methods – 1 Tool
(Cell Stretching, Imaging, Electrophysiology)

In Vitro Research Without Sacrificing Relevance

Cell Stretching

Radial, uniaxial or customized strain fields.

One fast impulse stretch or cyclical stretch up to 50% strain at strain rates of up to 80/s.

Any stretch pattern.

High reproducibility.

Imaging

Before, during and after stretching up to 2,000 frames per second at 2MP resolution.

Easy-to-use software to independently measure tissue strain.

Electrophysiology

Electrodes stretch with the cells/tissue.

Recording/stimulation before, during, and after stretching

Comparison of pre and post stretch electrophysiological activity (normalization).

Soft microelectrode arrays (MEAs) on elastomeric silicone substrates.

Standard microelectrode arrays (MEAs) on rigid substrates available.
