Medium Container for Medical Application Tests

Fast reabsorbing materials, which are increasingly used in traumatology, surgery, and wound healing change their material properties incrementally as they make contact with mediums such as saline solution. This must able to be regulated so that the reabsorbing biomaterials can be used purposefully. It is important to know and adapt to the changes in stiffness, tensile strength, and yield point during manufacturing and development.

In the field of biomaterials, the mechanical properties of both regenerative and artificial materials are researched. To reflect the physiological conditions of the body, mechanical tests should be performed in a temperature-controlled fluid bath. ZwickRoell's fluid bath enables simulation of an in-vivo environment for tests on fast reabsorbing materials.

Typical applications for fluid baths in the medical industry include:
Stents
Biological materials
Dental ceramics
Suture material
