MV 20: The ibidi Pump System


In this video, we provide an introduction to cell-based perfusion assays using the ibidi Pump System. This versatile setup enables researchers to create physiological flow conditions in vitro, mimicking the in vivo microenvironment for a variety of cell types.

Key Features of the ibidi Pump System

  • Precisely controlled shear stress and flow rates
  • Simulation of unidirectional, pulsatile, and oscillatory flow patterns
  • Closed, sterile, air pressure–driven system
  • Compatible with all ibidi Channel Slides and Perfusion Sets
  • Fully programmable with PumpControl Software for automated assays

Applications

  • Cultivation of endothelial and epithelial cells under flow
  • Rolling and adhesion assays with immune cells
  • Studying transmigration and invasion behavior
  • Long-term perfusion of 2D and 3D cultures (spheroids, organoids)
  • Live cell imaging and immunofluorescence under defined flow conditions
