Catalog excerpts

Sei&ntifr'o /nstrm&Ktg tool or by specially developed but abruptly moving apparatus, and both techniques disturb the cell monolayers The WoundScratcher was designed, developed and manufactured by Peira in close cooperation with researchers facing the problems mentioned above. The uniqueness of the instrument lies in the smooth and consistent two dimensional movement produced by a rotatative drive system. No abrupt or uncontrolled movements disturb the process. Turning the wheel on the instrument combines an eccentric motion with a lateral spiral drive, resulting in a controlled tooth shaped movement of the well plate carrying the samples. This creates a gap in each of the 8 wells for a single turn cycle (versus 4 in conventional tools). BENEFIT As a first step towards automation and standardization of in vitro scratch experiments the WoundScratcher enhances productivity by doubling the capacity per time unit over existing systems and improves quality through uniformity and consistency of the scratch. TECHNICAL DATA Dimensions (LxWxH): Weight: Weight Scratch Pin: Number of Pins: Speed: CE: 530 x 164 x 297 mm 5 kg 105 g 4 or 8 Manual The WoundScratcher fully complies with all CE guidelines relative to mechanical compatibility.
