Force transducers for all contractile
tissues
Harvard Apparatus says its F-series isometric force transducers approach the ideal for measurement of force in small contractile tissues
The standard Model F30 features excellent resolution of +/-2mg over a useful force range of +/-30g (+/-0.3N) The Model F10 has a lower force range of +/-10g (+/-0.1N) and ultra-high resolution of +/-0.5mg, making it suitable for detecting the minute force changes commonly found in small tissue preparations

Catalogue covers physiology and toxicology
Harvard Apparatus has released its new 928 page free catalogue of superior products for a wide range of animal applications in physiology, pharmacology and toxicology
The F30 and F10 are based on the magneto-resistive field plate principle.
The field plates are electronically connected to form a Wheatstone Bridge so that the F30/F10 can be used with virtually any standard transducer amplifier.
As a consequence of this construction, both models display low vertical displacement of the load element for true isometric measurements.
In addition, the inherently low seismic activity of the F-Series design minimises the influence of incidental environmental vibrations, resulting in impressively stable baseline performance.
Robust construction and flexible design ensure reliability over a wide range of applications.
