<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To analyze a pathologic condition of a disorder caused by external micro force by repeatedly compressing a bundle-shaped and continuous microtissue such as the peripheral nerve or the blood vessel of an animal. <P>SOLUTION: This microtissue repeatedly compressing apparatus comprises a compressing device fixed by a fixing device and applying pressure to the microtissue, a compressor continuously supplying air pressure to the compressing device using a relief valve, a pressure sensor detecting the air pressure supplied from the compressor, a pressure regulator regulating the pressure to be supplied to the compressor based on a value detected by the pressure sensor, a solenoid valve switching between the supply and stop of the air pressure to the compressing device, a program type controller controlling the opening/closing of the solenoid valve, and a computer transferring a program for automating the operation to the program type controller, analyzing data formed by converting the signals of the values of the pressure sensor by a pressure transducer and displaying them on a monitor. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
