NanoSurface Cytostretcher & Cytostretcher-LV (continued)


NanoSurface Cytostretcher


Compact Design The Cytostretcher is extremely compact, easily integrating into your existing cell culture workflow. It can be operated on the benchtop or alongside other cultures inside a standard cell culture incubator, saving valuable space.


Convenient Control Unit


The Cytostretcher Control Unit is a small, lightweight module that can be magnetically attached to the exterior of a cell culture incubator.


Run Multiple Experiments in Parallel


Flexible Cytostretcher Chambers are available in a variety of formats, so you can mechanically condition many cultures in parallel. Larger chambers offer more culture area (up to 25 cm2 throughput (up to 24 wells).


). Smaller chambers offer higher


• Unparalleled experimental flexibility: program highly customized stretch routines.


• Versatile and intuitive NaOMI software makes programming fast and easy. No bulky external controllers.


• Small footprint: 300 x 100 x 60 mm. Use the Cytostretcher alongside other cultures in your cell culture incubator.


• Parallel operation: control many Cytostretchers with a single computer.


• Throughput: 1 CS-2500, 3 CS-0144, or 6 CS-0025 parallel stretching chambers per Cytostretcher.


NanoSurface Cytostretcher-LV Up To 6 Parallel Cultures


Configure with up to six 25 mm2 wells or one 144 mm2 Maintain Focus While Stretching


Universal Mounting Frame K


Allows for broad compatibility with many industry standard microscopes and stages. Other mount options are available upon request.


Touch Screen Panel A touch-panel interface provides easy control of culture conditions.


Environmental Control for Long-Term Imaging The Environmental Control Unit (ECU) is a microscope stagetop incubator that provides complete control of biological culture conditions, including temperature, humidity, and CO2 concentration. An included thermal camera allows for quick and continuous monitoring of sample temperature.


Observe Cells While Stretching


Image live cells during your stretch routines. The Cytostretcher-LV and Cytostretcher Chambers are compatible with transmitted light and high-NA fluorescence microscopy, including immersion objectives.


• Live View: stretch cells on an optical microscope • Image living cells while stretching


• Temperature, CO2, and humidity environmental control directly on the microscope stage


• Programmable using versatile NaOMI software • Operate with or without computer • Standard K-frame stage mount
