The Perfusion Apparatus has been developed to allow automation of the perfusion step of the islet isolation process.
The system is equipped with two peristaltic pumps, two pressure sensors, a heater, a touch-screen, and data acquisition software. The machine accurately regulates flow, pressure, and temperature in real time for two separate perfusion systems that are controlled by a single interface.
In addition, the machine has the ability to store a time-lapse record of every parameter during the procedure.
The Perfusion Apparatus enables the researcher not only to analyze each perfusion, but to refine the procedure into a repeatable and efficient protocol.
