System for preparation, culture and electrophysiological characterization of myocardial slices

Edit
Purpose of equipment
The system consists of four subsystems: (i) for preparation of myocardial slices (heart isolation and slicing with a high-precision vibratome); (ii) biomimetic culturing of slices (with electrical and mechanical stimulation in MyoDish chambers); (iii) action potential recording with a 120-microelectrode array and (iv) measuring sarcomere length & force and intracellular calcium.
Access of equipment
Responsible for equipment: PhD Lea Rems
The equipment is located in the Laboratory of Biocybernetics, Fac. of El. Eng., Univ. of Ljubljana. Contact lab head prof. Tadej Kotnik. It is available to external RO upon request.
