Myographs
Wire Myographs emkaMYO2, emkaMYO4 Our myograph systems are used to investigate the functional responses and vascular reactivity of small arteries, veins, lymph vessels and tracheal smooth muscles, with lumen diameter from 100µm to 3mm and segment lengths up to 3.5mm. Wire myography is an ex vivo technique widely used in preclinical research, to examine microvessels […]

emkaBATH Benefits
Benefits Easy to use, emkaBATH systems are modular and highly reproducible. Modular Our setups offer up to four independent baths ranging from 5 to 20 mL, and a wide range of hook shapes (i.e. open and closed triangle, C and L-shaped to accommodate a large variety of isolated tissues strips and (micro)vessels. Microvessels : veins, […]
emkaBATH- Techniques and Measurement
Technique & Measurements Isometric contraction In ex vivo experiments, tissue strips and vessels are studied after isolation from their normal environment. In order to simulate this environment, physiological saline solution is used and experiments are conducted at 37 °C. emkaBATH is used under isometric conditions (i.e. the length of the muscle is kept constant while […]
Tissue baths systems
Tissue bath systems emkaBATH emkaBATH is a tissue bath setup, designed for contractile measures in tissues such as aortic, tracheal, iliac, and papillary muscles, and/or microvessels such as veins, small arteries, and lymph vessels. The system provides heated, oxygenated, and nutrient-rich perfusate to the tissue with or without drug administration and electrical stimulation. Tissue baths […]
isolatedHEART Techniques and Measurement
Techniques & Measurements This page lists techniques and measurements employed bythe isolatedHEART perfusion system. Langendorff perfusion | Working Heart perfusion Download our guide to learn more about the techniques Langendorff heart perfusion mode In the Langendorff heart perfusion mode, the perfusate is pumped through the aorta towards the heart. Because of this retrograde perfusion, the […]
isolatedHEART Benefits
Benefits Easy to use, the isolatedHEART system is modular and highly reproducible. Modular The same system can be used in either Langendorff or Working Heart Mode. While designed for mice and rat hearts, the system can be adapted for use with rabbits and guinea pigs as well. Multiple perfusion head designs and bubble trap sizes […]
Langendorff and Working Heart
Langendorff & working Heart Isolated Heart Perfusion system The isolated heart perfusion system is a versatile solution to investigate small mammalian heart function, in health and disease, or following drug challenges. Using either the Langendorff or the Working Heart technique, it allows the simultaneous assessment of cardiac electrophysiological and mechanical parameters (ECG, LVP, perfusion flow […]
