The pulsatile output closely simulates the ventricular action of the heart. This action provides physiological advantages in blood flow for perfusion in cardiovascular and hemodynamic studies. It is ideal for isolated organ perfusion, whole body perfusion, blood transfers, hydration/dehydration procedures and blood cellular profile studies.
Pump Mechanism A positive piston actuator and ball check valves provide the proportioning action. The product of stroke rate times stroke volume is an accurate indicator of the flow rate. Positive piston action prevents changes in flow rates, regardless of variations in resistance or back pressure. The piston always travels to the end of the ejection stroke, independent of the volume pumped. The Pump completely empties at each cycle.

In 1934, a process was patented by Formhals, wherein an experimental design was outlined for the production of polymer filaments using electrostatic force. When used to spin less than 100 micron Fibers to micron fibers, the process is termed “electrospinning.” The electrospinning method uses a high voltage to create an electrically charged jet of polymer solution or melt, which then dries or solidifies to leave a polymer fiber. This is accomplished by first mounting a syringe into a syringe pump capable of delivering a constant pressure and smooth flow to a pulled spray nozzle. One electrode is placed into this spinning solution/melt while the other is placed onto a grounded collector, most often a metal wire mesh. The driving force is provided by a high voltage source generating up to 30kV of positive or negative polarity through the electrode located at the nozzle tip. When an electric field is subjected to the end of the nozzle tube a charged is induced on the surface of the liquid. A mutual charge repulsion causes a force directly opposite to the surface tension, such that as the intensity of the electric field is increased, the hemispherical surface of the fluid at the nozzle tip elongates into a conical shape known as the Taylor cone. With increasing field, a critical value is attained when the repulsive electrostatic force overcomes the surface tension and a charged jet of fluid is ejected from the tip of the Taylor cone. The jet undergoes a whipping process during which the solvent evaporates and the remaining charged polymer fiber randomly lays itself on the grounded metal collecting screen. By adjusting the flow of the fluid from the pump and the magnitude of the electric field, the spinning rate can be controlled.

Figure 1: Stepped, Continuous, and Ramped gradient. The new Harvard Apparatus Syringe Pump Gradient System has the ability to easily program step and continuous concentration gradients from two or three solvents (Figure 1). The Harvard Apparatus syringe pumps are highly published for their superior flow accuracy and precise flow performance from ul/min to hundreds of ml/min . Figure 2 shows the shows the flow at 1000 and 500 ul/min. In both stem cell bolus injections and 3D reactor perfusion stream dosing, the Harvard Apparatus Gradient systems allows you to automatically deliver injections fluids or perfusion flow streams that can have variable % concentration automatically. These serial dilutions or solution changes are preprogrammed or signaled and initiated by an I/O event. In the case of injections you could automatically change the amount of cells in every injection by programming an increase in the concentration of cell solution in each injection, or by simply selecting a new pre-established method. In perfusions, a pH probe could signal for a different % composition of the perfusion stream, or dose a perfusion stream automatically. This could provide more buffering capacity or adjustment solution to the perfusion stream completely unattended.

This new capability of Harvard Apparatus syringe pumps to completely deliver % composition changes automatically with high accuracy and precision flow provides a new economical tool to advance experiments and eliminate manual input for complex solution changes. - Enzyme studies - Reaction dosing solutions - Drug infusion experiments

A polymeric culture chamber houses the biologic sample and the medium for the whole culture period. Cylindrical scaffold holders are constructed with working ends of different diameters - to house matrices of diverse dimensions - and a central portion of smaller diameter to expose the luminal surface of the matrix for cell seeding and culturing. A co-axial conduit links the inner chamber to the external environment through an appropriate interface at the chamber wall. This provides access to seed and feed the luminal surface of the construct. Secondary elements moving with the scaffold holder induce continuous mixing of the culture medium to increase oxygenation and mass transport. The cell/matrix construct is moved by a DC motor (0-5 rpm adjustable) separated

NEW LB-2 Bioreactor for Mouse and LB-2 Bioreactor
Rat Lung Regeneration
LB-2 Bioreactor For regeneration and respiratory monitoring of Mouse and Rat Lungs from decellularized scaffolds
Harvard Apparatus | Advanced Solutions for Regenerative Medicine
Benefits & Features: • Proven design – demonstrated regeneration of rat lung with physiological performance and subsequent transplantation, as recently published by Ott et al, 2010, Regeneration and orthotopic transplantation of a bioartificial lung , Nature Medicine, Volume 16 No 8, pgs 927-933 •Active control of both airway ventilation and vascular perfusion during regeneration
based Organ Regeneration. Over 60 years of whole organ physiological perfusion experience are at the core of this first commercially available bioreactor for Lung Regeneration. Like all Harvard Apparatus - Hugo Sachs Elektronik perfusion systems, the LB-2 provides unmatched physiological maintenance and monitoring capabilities thanks to the patented Solid State Physiological Perfusion Circuit (S2P2C) technology. In the LB-2, this means rigidly milled pathways, directly into the Perspex structure, for both vascular perfusion and airway ventilation. The result is precisely repeatable non-turbulent perfusion and respiration characteristics. This combined with the naturally excellent thermal properties of Perspex, creates a system that allows control, maintenance, and monitoring of vascular and respiratory mechanics during regeneration in a way that is more physiologically relevant than any conventional bioreactor.
System Accessories: • Small Animal Ventilator
•On-line monitoring of respiratory mechanics and vascular physiology
• Pulsate Blood Pump
•Self-contained bioreactor specially designed for unique lung physiology
• Transducers
Physiological maintenance and monitoring:
• Data Acquisition and Analysis
• Syringe Pump • Amplifiers
The LB-2 provides an optimal, physiologically relevant environment for organ growth as well as the ultimate foundation for real-time monitoring of respiratory mechanics. The complete range of pulmonary monitoring parameters are fully integrated into the bioreactor to enable physiological monitoring during organ generation and end-stage validation for transplant. • Airway Flow • Airway Pressure • Intrapleural Pressure • Tidal Volume

Now pH, O2 and CO2 can be measured easily in disposable systems using new iDots. iDots are welded into the wall of the bioprocess container, are precalibrated, can be gamma sterilized and are made of all USP Class VI materials. iDots are readily adaptable to your single-use application using Polestar’s DSP series optical monitors. Flow-cell probe is a zero dead-volume sensor that can be up with DSP series Optical Process Monitors for continuous measurement of DO or pH. Pre-calibrated DO or pH fluorescent sensing films deposited along the inner surface of the quartz flow-cell body enabling optical interrogation through the transparent wall of the flow-cell via standard fiber optic cable. A simple re-useable clamping device with integral fiber optic connector is provided to facilitate mounting the device. Flexible silicone tubing on each end of the flowcell enables quick connection to external tubing or adapters such as Luer-Lock fittings. All materials used in the construction of the flow-cell sensors are USP Class VI certified and can withstand autoclave or gamma sterilization. Puncture probe oxygen sensors are configured for measurements of oxygen in applications such as package integrity testing, small volume samples and soft tissue monitoring. The probe is constructed from a small diameter fiber optic capped with a thin layer of oxygen sensing chemistry fixed within the lumen of a stainless steel hypodermic needle. Coring and non-coring designs are available in sizes ranging from 14 gauge to 24 gauge. Responses times (t90) for Polestar’s puncture probes are <10 seconds for measurements of gas phase oxygen and <20 seconds for dissolved oxygen.

Universal Perfusion Solution Monitor: proven electrochemical detection of pH, pO2, pCO2 in hydrodynamic systems PH, pO2, & pCO2 System
Universal Perfusion Solution Monitor
Detail of pH, pO2 & pCO2 Sensor System
Detail of pO2 Sensor
• Rugged construction • Noise free design, no cross talk • High sensitivity • Good linearity For studies involving isolated or in situ perfused organs (heart, lung, liver, kidney) it is often important to continuously monitor pO2, pCO2 and/or pH of the perfusate or effluate. Which parameter is measured depends on the organ used and on the type of experiment conducted. The universal perfusion solution monitor permits precise continuous or discontinuous measurement in liquid media of these three key parameters pO2, pCO2 and pH. The electrodes are all side stream flow-through electrodes and require a pulsation-free roller pump to deliver constant flow of perfusate through the electrode at flow rates in the range from 0.5 to 2 ml/min. The solution is pulled through each of the electrodes in series. The pH sensor requires an external reference electrode (both the pO2 and pCO2 contain internal reference electrodes). A solid state leak free reference system is used. Because of the high impedance of these sensors, screening or shielding of the measuring circuit is required to guard against electrostatic discharges and other electrical disturbances. The shielding case also provides a convenient point of attachment to the multi-electrode mounting plate. Sensors are available individually or configured as a complete package with suitable amplifiers and Data Aquisition.

Guide for Advanced Metabolic and Physiological Evaluation of Organisms, Organs, Tissues & Cells using Infrared Contrast Imaging (IRCI) (continued) Know More About Your Experiment with IRCI Harvard Apparatus has utilized infrared imaging in a way that not only provides temperature imaging but also produces high contrast images in biological and medical applications. This new technique uses the camera’s ability to detect IR emmisivity from objects as a function of their surface texture, composition, temperature, shape and more. This new utilization of infrared imaging has been called IRCI - Infrared Contrast Imaging. This powerful technology can visualize, with high resolution, experimental conditions based on tissue vascularization, structure or metabolic state.
• Site evaluations for viable or necrotic tissue • More clearly reveal morphological features of biological substrates • Track injection flow paths in real time to evaluate injection quality
Accurate Noncontact Infrared Measurement For Visualizing Physiological, Metabolic and Morphological features with IRCI To assure accurate noncontact infrared temperature measurement keep in mind the following: • Distance to Target (Spot) Ratio • Field of View • Environmental Conditions • Ambient Temperatures Harvard Apparatus | Advanced Solutions for Regenerative Medicine
• Emissivity
Distance to Target Ratio The distance controls the energy hitting the detector, the closer the camera the more signal being picked up.
Field-of-view The array must have the correct lens in front of it to get as much illumination of the emitted light onto as many pixels as possible. When choosing a system the lens should be selected to give you the proper working distance and the magnification to display the area of interest on as much of the array as possible
Environmental Conditions Watch for environmental conditions in the working area. Steam, dust, smoke, etc., can prevent accurate measurement by obstructing the unit's optics. Dew point or the moisture in the air can cause blurring of the image also if you have glass containers or certain plastics they will absorb all the IR energy so they are not transparent to the IR and you will not be able to see through these. If this happens replace the material with a IR transparent material if possible.
Ambient Temperatures (the surrounding temperature) If the thermometer is exposed to abrupt ambient temperature differences of 20 degrees or more, allow it to adjust to the new ambient temperature for at least 20 minutes. The camera fixed-mounted sensors are specified for performance within certain ambient temperature ranges. For high ambient temperatures, some camera’s offers air cooling and water cooling options as well as accessories, such as Thermojacket.
Emissivity Emissivity is the measure of an object's ability to emit infrared energy. Emitted energy indicates the temperature of the object. Emissivity can have a value from 0 (shiny mirror) to 1.0 (blackbody).
Emissivity Differences Create Contrast with IRCI IRCI has the ability to enhance contrast of objects based on their emmissivity. There are many features of many different types of samples which may be revealed by IRCI, making it a particularly useful tool. Some of these features are:
• Surface Texture • Sample Thickness • Temperature • Chemical Composition • Depth Profile

Guide for Advanced Metabolic and Physiological Evaluation of Organisms, Organs, Tissues & Cells using Infrared Contrast Imaging (IRCI) (continued) Infrared contrast imaging (IRCI) enables clear visizualization of physiological and structural features of living tissue which are otherwise very difficult to detect. This is demonstrated in a rodent model where cardiac infarct was induced via ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD). Areas of advanced cardiac infarct generally display a faint and localized “paleness” at the epicenter of the infarct, where myocardial injury is greatest and most pronounced. The images below show, widespread changes in detected emmissivity on the myocardial surface after LAD ligation. What may be partially visible to an experienced observer using the naked eye, is now readily apparent to even the uninitiated user of IRCI technology. As a result, this technique enables routine procedures to be done without extensive training and with greater accuracy.
