Biomaterial Testing

WPI offer an extensive range of mechanical testing, cell stimulation and microphysiological systems for characterizing the mechanical properties of biomaterials.

Mechanical Test Systems

CellScales range of mechanical test systems optimized for characterizing the mechanical properties of biomaterials. Features like environmental chambers and imaging are integral system functions, not afterthoughts. For needs ranging from micro-scale compression to biaxial tension, our systems provide cutting edge results.

• BioTester – planar biaxial testing

• MicroTester – micro-scale mechanical testing

• UniVert – tension, compression and bending testing

Cell & Tissue Stimulation

Our MechanoCulture bioreactors provide insights into the response of cells and tissues to mechanical stimulation.

• MechanoCulture MCJ1 – 6 specimen tension stimulation

• MechanoCulture MCTX – 6 specimen compression stimulation

• MechanoCulture MCTR – 9 specimen hydrostatic stimulation

• MechanoCulture MCFX – 16 well uniaxial stimulation with microscopy

• MechanoCulture MCB1  – biaxial stimulation

• MechanoCulture MCT6 – 6 specimen uniaxial stimulation

• MechanoCulture MCTM – large volume tension with microscopy

Featured Products

BioTester

The market leader for biaxial testing of biomaterials, the BioTester comes with 4 actuators, high resolution imaging, a temperature-controlled media bath and 3 specimen mounting options.

UniVert

The UniVert is the most versatile and cost-effective mechanical tester for forces up to 1kN. It is capable of 3 testing modes and is suitable for customized test setups, high-volume testing, or classroom teaching.

MechanoCulture FX

Uniaxial stimulation to adhered cell monolayers in 16 culture wells. The system is compatible with high magnification inverted microscopy.

MechanoCulture B1

Biaxial stimulation of a cells in a monolayer or 3D matrix.
