Info:
Elastosens Bio is a mechanical tester for hydrogels and biomaterials. The system allows in situ contactless rheology of hydrogels, and cell laden materials under biologically relevant conditions. The non-destructive approach is useful to understand gelation kinetics, and degradation of hydrogels with programmable thermal and photo stimulation. Depending on the stiffness of the hydrogels, 2-7 mL of sample volume is needed to obtain meaningful results. It also has three built in photostimulation module (365, 385 and 405 nm) for photocrosslinking.
