U13-E01. MicroCT GE eXplore Locus SP (GE)

MicroCT GE eXplore Locus SP (GE): Computed X-ray Axial Tomograph for the non-destructive study of the microstructure and in vitro tomography: ›› Samples of up to 40 mm in diameter; resolution of 10 μm. ›› Different types of tissues, implants, scaffolds, etc. ›› Complete “section-by-section” imaging with a single rotation (cone beam volumetric technology); excellent image quality and “signal-to-noise” ratio. ›› “Bone Analysis Tool” software provided with: •• BMD (Bone Mineral Density): It calculates the density of minerals in the bone, the bone volume fraction and the mineral content in the bone. •• Anisotropy: It determines the degree of symmetry and the orientation of the trabecular structure. •• Cortical Analysis: It determines “section-by-section” the width, surface area and the BMD value of the cortical bone. •• Stereology: It provides the bone volume fraction, the ratio between the surface of the bone and its volume and the width of the trabecular plate. •• Direct Measures: It determines the local trabecular width of a bone and allows obtaining a visual representation of this local width.

U13-S05. Uniaxial test Instron MicroTester

Uniaxial test Instron MicroTester

Tensile, pure shear and planar tension are the tests inside the uniaxial group. Samples are stretched along an axis by measuring force and displacement. Cycling protocols can be integrated into the mechanical test. Mechanical and viscoelastic properties can be studied. Force is measured by means of load cells.

Customer benefits

  • Load cells are available with different full-scales depending on the material to test.
  • Tests can be controlled by means of displacement or force.
  • Specific protocols according customer requirements.
  • Tracking system can be used to measure real deformations.
  • Adaptable clamps according to sample geometry.

Target customer

Public and private research groups focused on biomaterials and tissue mechanical characterization.
