Contractility Assays
Sarcomere Shortening
of Isolated Cardiomyocytes
Determine the effects of your compounds on cardiac contractility.
Contractility of the heart muscle cells (isolated cardiomyocytes) is an indicator of cardiac function.
Calcium homeostasis is vital for heart function, and drug-induced disruptions can impair cardiac contractility. Aurora Biomed’s contractility assay uses isolated adult ventricular myocytes and the label-free IonOptix system to measure sarcomere shortening in real-time, providing quantitative contractility data.
✔ Non-Destructive, High-Precision Analysis
✔ Real-Time Sarcomere Length Measurement
✔ Assess Drug Impact on Cardiac Function
