Panlab Single Chamber Organ Bath

Overview:

The ML11110 Panlab Single Chamber Organ Bath is ideal for student classroom use. The ML1110 is a modular perspex organ bath with a 25 mL tissue chamber, three-way stopcock for physiological solution exchange and a fine needle valve for gas regulation. Tissue and transducer holders, micropositioner and mounting stand are supplied.

ADInstruments can supply a suitable isometric or isotonic Force Transducer. To maintain a constant temperature in the tissue chamber a Thermoregulated Water Pump is available which can be used with up to four of the Single Chamber Organ Baths in series (no more than 2m distance). A SP3600 O-Ring Kit is also available for purchase separately.

Features:

• Optimal modularity
• Micropositioner for high precision adjustment of the Transducer and tissue-holder support
• Complete accessibility to all components to facilitate maintenance or replacement
• Extremely easy to place the stimulation electrodes
• Independent valves per chamber for the fine adjustment of bubbling
• Minimum drift of the nutrient liquid
• Use of totally inert materials, Viton, Teflon, Delrin, Silicone and other materials that are not degraded by acids or salts

Applications:

Panlab Organ Baths are used for in vitro dose response experiments, used extensively to investigate the physiology and pharmacology of tissue preparations from various species (chick, toad, rabbit, rat, guinea-pig, etc.) Some of the tissues that may be studied with an organ bath system include:

Smooth Muscle:

• Vascular, e.g. arterial/aortic rings
• Guinea-pig ileum
• Vas Deferens (secretory duct of the testicle)
• Uterine
• Colon

Skeletal Muscle:

• Toad Abdominus Rectus
• Chick Biventer Cervis
• Mammalian Diaphragm
