Periodic "unidirectional stimulation + electrical stimulation" is applied to cultured cells and tissues such as cardiac muscle cells and skeletal muscle.
While applying stretch stimulation to cultured cells, electrical stimulation synchronized with that stimulation can be provided. The cells rearrange themselves parallel to the flow of electricity and perpendicular to the stretch stimulation. 【Features】 ■ Stretch stimulation is applied in synchronization with the trigger signal from the electrical stimulation amplifier. ■ Delay time from the trigger signal, stretch speed, stretch rate, wait time from stretching, contraction speed, etc., can be set. ■ It can be applied to research on protein expression, gene expression, etc., in cardiac cells, skeletal muscle, and more.
