Development of an open hardware bioreactor for optimized cardiac cell culture integrating programmable mechanical and electrical stimulations

A new open-hardware bioreactor capable of applying electrical field stimulation in conjunction with static or cyclic stretch is presented. Stretch is applied to cells by a specially designed elastomeric membrane with a central seeding region. The main interest of our approach is the fine control of...
