SMOOTH MUSCLE SYSTEMS
Dual Wire Myograph System - 420A
The Dual Wire Myograph System - 420A is designed for simultaneous testing of two vessels with diameters of 60 μm - 3 mm, independently. The vessels are mounted as ring preparations by threading them over two parallel stainless steel wires and securing the wires to two supports or "jaws".
One support is attached to a precision micrometer, allowing manual control of vessel circumference and stretch. The other support is attached to a force transducer for measurements of force/tension development.

Auto Dual Wire Myograph System - 520A
The Auto Dual Wire Myograph System - 520A is designed for simultaneous testing oftwo vessels with diameters of 60 μm - 3 mm, independently. The vessels are mounted as ring preparations by threading them over two parallel stainless steel wires and securing the wires to two supports or "jaws". One support is attached to a linear motor-driven micrometer, allowing automated control of vessel circumference and stretch. The other support is attached to a force transducer for measurements of force/tension development.

Multi Wire Myograph System - 620M
The Multi Wire Myograph System - 620M is the successor to our very popular 610M myograph system. This 4-channel multi myograph system is a highly sophisticated yet robust research instrument. It is an easy-to-use system for in vitro studies of small and large blood vessels, trachea or gut mounted as larger ring preparations (up to 10 mm).

Automated Multi Wire Myograph System - 630MA
Making it easier… the newly developed 4-channel system adds the ease of automating the normalization procedures so that calculations and preload tension is easily set. Following mounting and equilibration, passive length-tension relationships are determined by a standardized procedure.
This allows the standardization of initial experimental conditions, an important consideration when examining pharmacological differences between vessels.

Confocal Wire Myograph System - 360CW
The Confocal Wire Myograph System - 360CW is specially designed to provide very close optical access to the mounted artery or tissue segment, thereby allowing high resolution images of fluorescent dyes or markers by laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM). This system elegantly combines LSCM with artery myography to allow simultaneous measurements of isometric force and fluorescence. A perfect example are studies that correlate isometric contractions in an isolated, mounted blood vessel and intracellular Ca2+ measurements within the vascular smooth muscle cells.

Pressure Myograph System - 110PXL - for large vessels
The Pressure Myograph System - 110PXL is a custom-designed version of the Pressure Myograph System - 110P for use with larger arteries and veins. The chamber includes a set of adapters to accommodate arteries with internal diameters of 2.5 to 6.0 mm.
|
Pressure Myograph System - 112PP
The Pressure Pulsation Myograph System - 112PP is an ideal system used to study the structure and function of isolated sections of small vessels (diameter >40 μm) under near-physiological conditions. Vessel diameters can be measured in response to pharmacological and physiological stimuli.
|
Pressure Myograph System - 114P
The Pressure Myograph System - 114P is an ideal system used to study the structure and function of isolated sections of small vessels (diameter >40 μm) under near-physiological conditions. Vessel diameters can be measured in response to pharmacological and physiological stimuli.
|
Pressure Myograph System - 115FP, for rapid freezing
The Pressure Myograph System - 115FP is designed for biochemical or morphological studies where rapid freezing or fixing of the intact, pressurized vessel is required. After rapid freezing or fixation, the vessel can be used in studies such as morphological analysis or immunohistochemistry.
|
Confocal Pressure Myograph System - 120CP
The Confocal Pressure Myograph System - 360CW is a system specifically for use with laser scanning confocal microscopes and used to study intracellular ion activity and isobaric constriction of isolated sections of small resistance arteries (diameter >50 µm).
|
Culture Myograph Systems - 202CM & 204CM
The Culture Myograph System - 202CM & 204CM is designed to provide long-term functional preservation of small blood vessels by maintaining them under controlled culture conditions of intravascular pressure and flow. By using a closed, sterile system and standard culture methodology, vessels can be studied for several days.

Tissue Organ Bath System - 750TOBS
DMT has redesigned the Tissue Organ Bath System for the new millennium using the latest developments in material and computer and tissue engineering. The most common application of our Tissue Organ Bath is in cardiovascular research, using isolated aortic rings, heart tissue (papillary muscle, left ventricle) or other muscle strips.
|
TISSUE ORGAN BATH SYSTEM - 751mT
An ideal student tissue organ bath system...
The Tissue Organ Bath System - 751mT mini-TOBS is an affordable system that is recommended for a large variety of studies in the teaching environment, where contractile force measurement (isometric or isotonic) is required. Whether the experiment involves cardiac, skeletal or smooth muscle, the availability of a range of tissue holders and chambers make it a versatile laboratory tool.
