TERM: Cell Culture to Characterization

TERM research is poised to change healthcare as we know it.  This cutting-edge technology is developing personalized medicine and demands the tools and solutions that are able to keep up. Instron is delivering those solutions.

There are three major steps to developing TERM products:

1. Benchmarking: establishing functional goals based on native physiology

2. Cell Culture: successfully stimulating live cells to grow a functional tissue

3. Characterization & Evaluation: evaluating the resulting product and determining if the safety and efficacy benchmarks determined in the native physiogly have been achieved.

Instron’s instrument platform delivers the necessary solutions to achieve these three steps:

1. Both electromechanical and dynamic instruments coupled with clean test chambers and submersible grips can be used for benchmarking native physiology.
 
2. Instron bioreactors can be used for cell culture.

3. Electromechanical and dynamic frames coupled with bioreactor chambers can be used for final characterization.
