Langendorff System (Constant Pressure or Flow)

Overview:

The PL3508B2-V Langendorff System (Constant Pressure or Flow) is designed to perfuse isolated small animal hearts such as mouse, rat and guinea pig using the Langendorff Heart technique, while providing measurment of pressure, biopotentials and temperature. The compact design is space saving, quick to set up and easy to use.

• PL3508 PowerLab 8/35 (includes LabChart software)
• MLS260/7 LabChart Pro software
• ML176-V Langendorff Apparatus and Thermostat Controller
• ML172 Minipuls-3 Peristaltic Pump
• ML175 STH Pump Controller
• FE221 Bridge Amp (2)
• MLT844 Physiological Pressure Transducer (2)
• FE136 Animal Bio Amp
• MLA1214 Spring Clip Electrodes for FE136 (3 pk)
• ML312 T-Type Pod
• MLT1401 T-Type Implantable Thermocouple Probe (IT-18)
• MLA2001 Langendorff Transducer Accessory Kit
  • Connection Tubing (Luer Male Lock to Female, 300mm)
  • Luer 4-Way Male Lock Stopcocks
  • Luer Male Lock Plugs
  • Luer Male Lock Slip Connectors
  • Transducer Bracket

Ordering Information:
When ordering the PL3508B2-V please specify the following.
Mains Power (V) = 115 for 110-115V or 220 for 220-240V

Data Acquisition and Analysis:
The PowerLab 8/35 is shipped with ADInstruments LabChart software that provides data recording integrity, display and analysis features. The research system is also supplied with LabChart Pro software, which includes all the ADInstruments LabChart Modules (excluding GLP Client and Server). LabChart Modules provide application specific data acquisition, analysis and display features. 

LabChart Pro also entitles the purchaser to 5 years of FREE LabChart Pro software upgrades and updates. Purchasers are also entitled to any LabChart Module released during this 5 year period (excludes GLP Client and Server).

For more information see the LabChart Pro page or contact your nearest ADInstruments representative.

Features:

• A simpler, more effective solution for constant perfusate flow or pressure using a Minipuls-3 Peristaltic Pump and ADInstruments STH Pump Controller.
• The STH Pump Controller is the key to the system as it eliminates the need for elevated reservoirs and allows continuous recording of flow rate without an expensive flowmeter.
• A robust and compact apparatus. The perfusate reservoir includes two thermostatically controlled compartments which allow different perfusate solutions to be changed easily.
• The versatile, 8-channel PowerLab 8/35 data acquisition system that can simultaneously monitor multiple parameters from your isolated heart experiments. These include left ventricular pressure, rate of ventricular pressure change, perfusate pressure and flow rate, developed pressure, cardiac electrical activity, temperature and others. The PowerLab analog output may also be used to control the frequency of pulses from an external stimulator.
• Two Physiological Pressure Transducers and Bridge Amplifiers connected to a PowerLab to record perfusate pressure and left ventricular pressure.
• The Animal Bio Amp to amplify the cardiac electrical activity
• The T-type Pod and T-type Implantable Thermocouple Probe (IT-18) for temperature monitoring

Applications:

The Langendorff System (Constant Pressure or Flow) is designed for the perfusion of small animal hearts such as mouse, rat and guinea pig. More information can be found within the Langendorff Heart application page.
