Highest requirements?Customized solutions! Gases, complex mixtures, nano materials and environmental atmospheres are tested in vitro using our tailor-made exposure systems at the air/liquid interface.
New regulations?Excellent results! Skin tissue is exposed to liquids, powders, pastes and airborne materials in our unique in vitro testing devices with high reproducibility.
Durable components?Long-lasting advantages! Best-in-class components to optimally facilitate vacuum flows, temperature management and humidification of test atmospheres. Perfectly synchronized for VITROCELL® exposure modules.
Working together?Partnership for success! Valuable documentation on all VITROCELL® products, references as well as a compilation of relevant publications make this section a powerful information source for in vitro research.
VITROCELL® Cloud PowerVent Evacuation of residual gaseous compounds 1 Locking mechanism for airtight sealing 2 Exposure top 3 Nebulizer 4 Evacuation tubing 5 Liquid trap 6 Valve 7 To vacuum pump This system is specifically designed for dose-controlled and spatially uniform deposition of liquid aerosols on cells cultured at the air/liquid interface. The aerosol is applied for a short time of approx. 3 – 4 minutes. Phase 1 - Emission of Cloud Phase 2 - Homogeneous Mixing Phase 3 - Gravitational Settling The VITROCELL® Cloud can be used for aerosols generated from liquids and suspensions. Possible fields of application are screening for inhaled drugs and toxicity testing of inhaled substances including nanoparticle suspensions. There is a choice among 4 options of Aeroneb® nebulizers: 4.0 – 6.0 µm 2.5 – 6.0 µm 2.5 – 4.0 µm 10 µm (special version) The Cloud aerosol chamber is made of Polycarbonate.
