SynRAM model is a complete platform to study the inflammation pathway in a realistic environment. Enabling real-time tracking of rolling, adhesion and migration processes, it recreates a histological slice of co-cultured tissue and/or tumor cells with a lumen of endothelial cells.

SynVivo's SynRAM model is designed to overcome the limitations of devices classically used in biology by taking into account fluid shear and size/topology observed in vivo.

The device allows to recreate the microenvironment and to easily model the transmigration phenomenon. By recapitulating a histological slice of co-cultured tissue and/or tumor cells with an endothelial cell lumen, the SynVivo platform provides a physiologically realistic model while allowing real-time monitoring of the rolling, adhesion, and migration processes.

Mimic the physiological shear stress in a microvascular environment
In vivo-like vascular morphology with fully enclosed lumen
Cell-to-cell interaction is possible with co-culture
Get real-time quantitative rolling, adhesion, and migration

This assay has been successfully validated against in vivo studies showing an excellent correlation with rolling speeds, adhesion patterns, and migration processes.

To run SynRAM assays, two kits formats are available:

Starter Kit	Assay Kit
10 SynRAM chips (choice of IMN2 radial or SMN2 microvascular network chips) Accessories including tubing, clamps, needles and syringes Pneumatic priming device (required for priming tubing to remove air)	10 SynRAM chips (choice of IMN2 radial or SMN2 microvascular network chips) Accessories including tubing, clamps, needles and syringes

To order the chips only, check our dedicated pages for microvascular and radial designs (ref SY-102008, SY-105001).
