This video shows a tensile fracture test of engineered hydrogels performed by the MIT Zhao Lab using a CellScale UStretch precision tension testing system.

Two samples are tested side by side: a tip-reinforced hydrogel and a notched hydrogel. The comparison highlights differences in fracture behavior and failure mechanisms during uniaxial tension.
