Target/Analyte:
Twitch Time to Max

Short Name Tmax
Description Time required to generate maximum force in engineered muscle following a stimulation of 1 Hz for 2 sec to recreate twitch (single pulse) contraction using a custom-made force measurement setup.

Method/Kits with this Target/Analyte
Method/Kit Description
Force Transducer (Thorlabs) Application of force to the elastic element causes it to deflect and this deflection is then sensed by a secondary transducer which converts it into a measurable output. The output may be in the form of electrical signal as in strain gauge and linear variable differential transducer (LVDT) type load cells or mechanical indications as in proving rings and spring balances.
