Apply compression to tissue samples or 3-D cell-seeded constructs

Flexcell® Compression System regulates positive air pressure to compress tissue samples or 3D cell cultures in vitro. The FX-5000C Compression System compresses samples between a piston and stationary platen using our Biopress® culture plates. It can load up to 14 lbs. of applied force. Using the FX-5000C Compression System, researchers can observe biochemical changes and cell signaling in vitro that mimics in vivo conditions.

Schematic of how compression is applied to tissue samples in a BioPress well.

• Computer-regulated bioreactor that applies cyclic or static compression to 3-D cell-seeded constructs in vitro.

• Uses positive air pressure to yield up to 14 lbs of applied force (minimum force resolution of 0.1 lbf).

• Simulate in vivo tissue strains and frequencies in cells from muscle, lung, heart, blood vessels, skin, tendon,ligament, cartilage, and bone.

• Contains state-of-the-art digital valve to automatically regulate and maintain pressure for a specified compression regimen.

• Piston and stationary platen compress samples in a BioPress culture plate or StagePresser microscope device.

• Multiple frequency, amplitude and waveform changes can be programmed in one regimen (Fig. 4).

  Works with a Flexcell® Compression System to simulate biological compression conditions using pressure to deform tissue samples or cells cultured in a matrix.

  • Uses positive pressure to compress tissue samples or cell-seeded constructs between a piston and stationary platen in the Biopress® culture plate yielding up to 14 lb. of applied force
  • Platens are reusable and autoclavable. They are sold separately and as part of the FX-5000C Compression System
  • Biopress culture plates are available individually or in case quantity of 40 plates
