Membrane Sample Holder Kit

Test the mechanical properties of your membrane-like samples (thin layers) composed of soft polymers, hydrogels, bio engineered tissues or soft organ tissues using the membrane sample holder of the ElastoSens™ Bio. This device allows the loading of the sample and the testing of its shear storage modulus over short or long periods of time under sterile conditions. Mechanical testing with the ElastoSens™ Bio is non-destructive and contact free. Membrane sample holders are compatible with 12-well plates in which samples can be stored and kept sterile between mechanical measurements on the ElastoSens™ Bio. The Membrane Sample Holder of the ElastoSens™ Bio is used to test membranes inside the following dimensional range: Thickness: between 250µm and 3mm Diameter: 16 mm The kit contains: Three (X3)  autoclavable and reusable membrane sample holders; Three (X3) autoclavable and reusable sample loading systems specifically designed to facilitate the attachment of the membrane to the holding
