A device for imposing cyclic strain to cells growing on implant alloys

Abstract

A unique cell culture strain plate device was developed and shown to apply known, cyclic strain to cells growing on implant alloys. The strain environment experienced by the cells was quantified and reproducible. Differences in cellular protein and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels were measured due to the different strain conditions experienced by the cells.
