Aurora Scientific 305C-LR Dual-Mode Lever System

Aurora Scientific 305C-LR Dual-Mode Lever System

Aurora Scientific 305C-LR Dual-Mode Lever System is a force-and-length measurement system for experimental muscle mechanics and related materials testing. The 305C-LR is part of Aurora Scientific’s 300C series of dual-mode levers, which can control and measure both force and length. The system is intended for applications involving skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle, connective tissue, and other biological or synthetic specimens.

Dual-mode operation allows the researcher to switch between force and length control without the transient behavior associated with changing between separate measurement systems. Aurora Scientific describes the 305C-LR as a 10 N-force model with 20 mm length excursion, making it suitable for preparations requiring greater force capacity than the lower-force 300C variants.

Key Features

• Dual-mode control and measurement of tissue force and length.
• 305C-LR configuration with 10 N maximum force and 20 mm length excursion.

Applications

Aurora Scientific identifies the 300C series for measuring mechanical properties of skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle and connective tissue. The 305C-LR can also be used in experimental work involving biological and synthetic polymers and fibers. Its force-and-length control architecture is useful for isometric, isotonic, and auxotonic measurement protocols where the experimental preparation must be mechanically controlled while force and length are recorded.

In a muscle-physiology workflow, the lever interfaces the preparation with a controller and associated experimental apparatus, allowing controlled changes in length or force while the resulting mechanical response is measured. The manufacturer’s documentation should be used to establish the complete system configuration for a particular experiment.
