The CELLview™ cell culture dish
combines the convenience of a standard size 35 mm disposable plastic
cell culture dish with the optical quality of glass, providing superior
high-resolution microscopic images of in-vitro cultivated cultures.It is
made from high-grade polystyrene combined with an integrated glass
bottom. The innovative design of the cell culture dish provides a
single-plane, flat bottom with a consistent working distance and maximal
planarity. Moreover, the dish bottom configuration facilitates optimal
thermal conductivity and avoids thermal variations in heated platforms
used for live cell imaging.
The subdivided version of the CELLview™ Dish
enables simultaneous multiplex analyses of different cell lines,
various stimulations or diverse transfections. Quartering the cell
culture dish provides four individual compartments with a growth area of
approximately 1.9 cm², allowing minimisation of cells and reagents
required per individual assay.
SCREENSTAR microplates
are specialised products for sophisticated microscopic applications, in
high content screening (HCS) or high resolution microscopy with water
and oil immersion objectives.They combine outstanding glass-like optical
properties with an excellent surface for adherent cell culture and
display excellent optical properties with reduced autofluorescence in
the lower UV range, low birefringence and a refractive index of 1.53
comparable to glass.
Furthermore, thy enable complete
periphery access for high magnification objectives and are entirely
manufactured out of cycloolefin with a black pigmented cycloolefin frame
and a 190 μm ultraclear cycloolefin film bottom. SCREENSTAR microplates are available in 96, 384 and 1536 well format.
