dP/dt is a signal derived from pressure, typically ventricular blood pressure, that indicates the change in pressure over time.
Isolated Organ
Isolated organ research allows for an organ to be studied in a controlled environment, free from external influences. Conditions such as temperature, the degree of oxygenation, available nutrients, and pH can be controlled for research purposes.
Perfusion of an organ - usually the heart, lungs, liver or kidney - may be required. Once the organ is successfully maintained outside the body, its physiological function can be studied via a whole suite of recordable parameters such as force, muscle contractions, pressure, and biopotentials.
ADInstruments offer a wide range of high-quality products, systems, and solutions to meet your isolated organ research needs, including a variety of tissue-organ bath systems. LabChart provides streamlined software to measure and analyze changes in blood pressure, flow, and volume, as well as many additional functions for pharmacological and cardiovascular research. We also offer a Dose Response Add-On, with analysis and graphical display of dose response data recorded in LabChart.
