Chambers: Fabricated out of bioinert, autoclavable  materials, the CartiGen bioreactor chambers apply  oscillatory compressive/tensile stimulation to disc shaped samples. The chambers can be used with a variety of construct materials by choosing one of our many  chamber options. Maximum sample size is 10 mm diameter
by 5 mm thick, for a standard single sample chamber.
A custom silicone seal provides a mechanical feed-through and maintains a sterile environment while allowing axial motion with minimal resistance.
C10-1 Chamber:
Sample Size - 1
Maximum Diameter - 30mm
Maximum Thickness - 5mm
C10-12 Chamber:
Sample Size - 12
Maximum Diameter - 10mm
Maximum Thickness - 5mm
Unique design includes optical grade windows on the bottom
of the chamber for confocal viewing during culture.
C9-X Chamber:
Sample Size - 9
Maximum Diameter - 8mm
Maximum Thickness - 5mm
Minimum Thickness - 2mm
Unique design provides directed perfusion through each of
the samples during culture on a common flow loop.

DynaGen® Stimulator: The CartiGen bioreactor system
includes the TC20 tension/compression mechanical
stimulator. This 40 Newton linear motor is lightweight, compact,
corrosion resistant and compatible with most
standard incubators. The TC20 stimulator can be used with any
of the CartiGen bioreactor chambers.
Stimulator Specifications:
Height: 10.5 inches Footprint: 5 inches by 7 inches
Weight: 5.5 pounds
GrowthWorks® Control System: A fifth generation design, the
GrowthWorks® Software and control platform includes advanced
capabilities, such as multiple waveform control, data
aquisition and multi-motor operation. The intuitive software
runs on a laptop computer under Windows XP and features a
simple user interface. User defined stimulation profiles are controlled
by the computer and readily monitored using graphic
displays. Integrated data aquisition routines capture and record
data at user prescribed intervals.
Featuring a 32 bit In based CPU and integrated motor drives,
the control hardware communicates with the laptop using a
network cable. GrowthWorks® can be configured to run four
stimulators and monitor up to 8 transducers, allowing the researcher
to customize the system functionally. The controller
can be upgraded with additional modules for
applications requiring automation features or additional
axes of mechanical stimulation.
Straightforward and adaptable,
GrowthWorks® provides the ideal
control platform for mechanically
stimulated tissue growth.
