This TC-3 culture chamber -which allows applying the combined application of mechanical and flow loads- has been designed to be compatible both with tension and compression flow grips. The compression-flow grips are conceived to be used with porous scaffold scaffold subjected to compressive loads, while tubular scaffols under luminal flow and tension conditions can be culture in by using the tension-flow grips.
A transparent lid covers the culture volumen from the top, whereas a wide glass window as been included in the bottom. All the components of the chambers to be in contact with culture media are autoclavable or disposable.
