Radnoti 4 Channel Tissue Bath System with 2 Liter Reservoir Including Radnoti transducers and amplifiers

The Radnoti 4-Unit Tissue Bath Systems are the staple of tissue bath research, allowing increased productivity of researchers by permitting them to simultaneously monitor 4 preparations. By allowing replication of protocols, these systems give the researcher greater throughput, decrease the time required to amass data and are easily expandable to 8-units when budget permits. The system’s modular design allows the option to select a wide variety of Radnoti tissue baths, with 2ml, 5ml, 10ml, 25ml and 50ml baths available as standard selections with the system. Specialty tissue baths may be requested at an additional charge. The purchase of several different size baths for the unit is also an option. Radnoti tissue baths are individually mounted via adjustable ring-clamps to stainless steel support rods that are screwed into a sturdy steel base that is coated to resist corrosive salt solutions.

The Tissue Bath Solution flows from a water jacketed, temperature controlled 2-liter reservoir through a glass manifold system with flow adjustment valves. Optional additional reservoirs may be purchased to perform complex drug additions and wash out protocols. The bath solutions enter the tissue bath through a pre-heating coil built within the water jacket of High Tech tissue baths.

The experimenter may empty the baths via a bottom drain, controlled with a stopcock. The baths may also be used in a constant flow mode with the waste perfusate exiting an overflow outlet at the top of the bath. An optional Radnoti 5-liter plastic vacuum flask may be added to the system to aid in rapid wash and fill of the baths. Both overflow and bottom drains may be routed to permit monitoring the release of endogenous substances, drug metabolites, or to design a cascade system configuration.

Bath aeration is finely controlled through the removable individual needle valves in each bath. Each tissue bath has its own force transducer and tissue tensioner, permitting rapid adjustment, positioning and tension adjustment of the specimen.

The system comes complete with a Radnoti 159901A Isometric Force Transducer that has two force range settings (0-2gm, 0-20gm).The 0-5 volt transducer output is conveniently shown on a LED display and the transducer also has a BNC voltage output that can be connected to an optional data acquisition system .  The system is also available without force transducers and amplifiers (part number 159920-X1).

The systems are recommended for passive and stimulated muscle preparations using protocols including drug titrations, drug metabolism and kinetics, radio labeling, washout experiments, muscle force, and stress measurements for cardiac muscle, skeletal muscle, smooth muscle such as aortic rings, bladder or intestine as well as many other experiments. Thin, non-muscle preparations can be maintained in these baths as well. Systems are available in complete turnkey configurations or by individual components as with all of the extremely flexible Radnoti designs.
