A multi-mode, multi-channel system for mechanical stretching and electrical stimulation of tissue and cells The new IonOptix C-Pace System is a multi-mode, multi-channel system for mechanical stretching and/or electrical stimulation of tissue and cells. It can be used with our C-Stretch for simultaneous stretch and stimulation or with our C-Dish electrode assemblies and standard culture dishes for electrical stimulation alone. Electrostimulation coupled with mechanical stretch offers a powerful [...]

A complete data acquisition system for diameter & fluorescence measurements, as well as flow characterization in pressurized vessels We have equipped our Myocyte Calcium and Contractility System for simultaneous measurements of pressurized blood vessel fluorescence and diameter.  By visualizing the blood vessel on the microscope, IonOptix’ new vessel-specific dimensioning software, VesAcq, can track the outer and/or luminal diameters, wall thickness and cross-sectional area of the blood vessel from the digitized frame [...]

Record Force from Isolated Cardiac Myocytes! IonOptix is proud to announce the release of our next generation MyoStretcher System, which now uses our revolutionary New Optical Force Transducer, the OptiForce. Designed specifically for force measurement in cardiomyocytes, it is now the most sensitive system on the market for measuring forces from isolated intact myocytes! We’ve developed the MyoStretcher with a focus on simplicity, ease-of-use, and reliability. The MyoStretcher [...]

The MultiCell HTS is an advanced, fully-automated solution for identification and mechanical phenotype quantification of hundreds of myocytes per hour. The MultiCell HTS system offers fast mechanical myocyte data acquisition from hundreds of myocytes per hour by using our automated cell finding image analysis method. The system includes a fast x-y-z position programmable scanning microscope which can mark and find position, size, focus and orientation of myocytes [...]
