BioTense Bioreactor
The BioTense Perfusion Bioreactor is an innovative instrument to help tissue engineers and cell biologists perform high resolution investigation in mechanobiology. Unique to the BioTense is its ability to apply mechanical stimulation and directly observe cell/matrix interaction at magnification over long periods of time. The Bioreactor sits atop the XYZ stage of an inverted microscope.
- Maintains desired concentrations of nutrients through a perfusion process
- Provides a window to directly observe cellular activity at high magnification
- Accurately controls reactor temperature

Material Research and Development Case Studies
One of ADMET’s customer, Nerites Corporation of Madison, Wisconsin, was founded in 2004 to develop novel adhesives and coatings for a wide range of medical, industrial and consumer applications although the majority of work focuses on structural adhesives and coatings for biomedical applications. Its innovative approach creates synthetic adhesives and coatings that mimic the binding proteins of the common blue mussel (Mytilus edulis). As Nerites’ material research progressed, it needed to test the adhesive properties of its MedhesiveTM product in wet (saline) environments that mimic conditions found in the human body. ADMET diagnosed, designed and delivered an eXpert 5602 universal testing machine in a horizontal configuration that could accommodate a saline bath. This accurate and flexible system fit the bill and positioned Nerites to successfully conduct their wide range of materials tests.

A Note from Richard Gedney, CEO and Founder
The ADMET story started over 33 years ago with the development of innovative materials testing software and controllers. These state of the art solutions were quickly adopted by testing machine builders and retrofitters making the company a leader in its industry. Building on it’s core strength of innovative software and hardware designs, ADMET began 20 years ago manufacturing its own line of robust, reliable, and accurate testing frames and systems. Throughout that time, ADMET has sought out and formed relationships with leading universities, laboratories and companies which have challenged us to meet the needs of scientists and engineers developing new films, polymers, construction materials, composites, medical devices, tissue and more. The result has been an evolving line of innovative testing systems to meet your product development needs.
