Project Brief:
ReproCELL Europe’s PM1 instrument provides real-time information on drug potency by measuring changes in the shape and form of isolated blood vessels during a pre-programmed perfusion schedule.
Our Approach:
Wideblue used its product design and engineering expertise to develop a complex system combining fluid handling with digital image capture and analysis. The resulting product embodies Biopta’s patented technology in a self-automated system supported by Wideblue’s custom PC application software.
Within the project, Wideblue led the development of:
- The fluid handling system
- Optical design of imaging system
- Electronics and flow control firmware
- Industrial design and human factors
Our Solution:
The product is now being sold for use in preclinical drug development programmes.
