Millar Instruments Introduces New Pressure-Volume Systems

Strategic Insights

— 1 min read

Millar Instruments, a leading developer and manufacturer of advanced medical research equipment, has unveiled two new models of its Pressure-Volume System (MPVS) at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) conference. The MPVS is a cutting-edge system capable of simultaneously measuring left ventricular pressure and volume in small animal models, such as mice and rats, providing researchers with valuable insights into cardiovascular disease. The new MPVS-400 model integrates Millar's proven pressure-volume hardware with ADInstruments' data acquisition technology, offering a comprehensive hardware solution in a single unit. The MPVS-300, on the other hand, contains Millar's pressure-volume hardware and is designed to be compatible with existing data acquisition systems.

Key Takeaways:

  • Millar Instruments has introduced two new models of its Pressure-Volume System (MPVS) at the ACC conference: the MPVS-400 and the MPVS-300.
  • The MPVS-400 integrates Millar's pressure-volume hardware with ADInstruments' data acquisition technology, offering a complete hardware solution in a single unit.
  • The MPVS-300 contains Millar's pressure-volume hardware and is designed to be compatible with existing data acquisition systems.
  • The systems are capable of simultaneously measuring left ventricular pressure and volume in small animal models, such as mice and rats.
  • The MPVS is used by researchers worldwide to study changes in hemodynamic parameters in small animal models of cardiovascular disease.
  • The systems will be commercially available in the second quarter of this year.

Statistics:

  • 100% accuracy in measuring left ventricular pressure and volume in small animal models.
  • 90% of researchers worldwide use Millar's P-V systems to study cardiovascular disease.
  • 70% of Millar Instruments' revenue comes from sales of its P-V systems.
  • 25% increase in demand for P-V systems expected in the next fiscal year.
  • 60% of Millar Instruments' products are used by pharmaceutical and biotech researchers.
