Measure Oxygen (O2) concentration with the ultimate working heart system and oxygen microelectrodes.
Working heart systems allow you to simultaneously monitor mechanical and electrical cardiac parameters, to examine the influence of preload and afterload on cardiac work during perfusion.
ADInstruments offer high-quality Working Heart and Langendorff systems for isolated working heart preparations. We also provide all complementary equipment and products, including tissue/organ baths, and a full range of supplementary accessories and consumables.
Advance your cardiac investigation with ADInstruments Working Heart and Working Heart Ultimate Systems. All systems include high quality and modular Radnoti glassware, PowerLab data acquisition hardware, LabChart Pro Analysis software and high-quality components for measuring cardiac parameters.
Add in specific amplifiers, transducers and electrodes to record atrial and aortic pressures as well as ECG or take your investigations to the next level with components such as pH and micro-oxygen probes, transonic flow meters and Millar pressure catheters, which facilitate additional cardiac parameters and oxygen consumption measurements, as well as the option to pace the heart.
In conjunction with our complete systems shown below, any device with an analog output (+/- 10V) can be connected to a PowerLab data acquisition system for synchronization of event in LabChart. So you have even more flexibility and can integrate all your data streams in one place.
All of our hardware is backed by the appropriate safety certification standards. More information on safety standards.

dP/dt is a signal derived from pressure, typically ventricular blood pressure, that indicates the change in pressure over time.
Measure Biphasic action potentials with any of our working heart systems.
Measure electrical stimulation and pacing with the ultimate working heart system and ADInstruments Stimulus Isolator.
Through the ultimate working heart system and Transonic Transit-Time Ultrasound Technology and flowmeters / flowsensors you can measure both atrial inflow and aortic outflow.
Using pressure or electrical activity, monitor heart health by calculating heart rate.
Measure pH with the ultimate working heart system and pH Amplifier.
Measure parameters including perfusion/aortic pressure (afterload), dP/dt, Left ventricular pressure, left atrial pressure (preload) and developed pressure.
Ensure the maintenance of a proper physiological environment in your system, or investigate the impacts of temperature on performance.
Using a working heart ultimate system paired with a Millar MPVS ultra foundation system you can accurately measure continuous real-time left ventricular volume directly and simultaneously with left ventricular pressure.
ADInstruments systems provide an integrated solution to advance life science research. With the combination of LabChart or LabChart Lightning analysis software and a PowerLab data acquisition unit, you have the flexibility to collect and synchronize a wide range of signals for analysis. We also offer a range of LabChart compatible solutions able to stream directly in LabChart.
