Tissue Culture surface microscopy slides
High temperature and chemical resistance
- Life cell imaging
- Immunohistochemistry
- Fluorescence in-situ hybridization
The high performance polymer of chamber bodies and lids withstands temperatures up to 90°C. Due to this temperature stability the Imaging Chambers show also excellent stability of the focus plane when the chambers are exposed to temperature shifts (e.g., when the chambers are transported from the incubator to the microscope). Furthermore the Imaging Chambers are resistant against many chemicals (e.g., acetone, DMSO, alcohols). Therefore the full products are suitable for in-situ hybridization technologies as well as for a wide range of fixation and staining protocols.
The microscope slides of the Imaging Chamber products are made from 1 mm soda lime glass of higher quality (optimized for fluorescence microscopy) all microscope slides have frosted ends (outside the chambers). All corners of the slides are smoothed. Imaging Chambers with microscope slides can be used with long distance objectives.
Cell adhesion, spreading and distribution are supported by over improved surface modification known from our Imaging Plate CG products. Imaging Chambers are available in 1 well, 2 well, 4 well and 8 well format.
Thickness | 1 mm |
Glass type | soda lime, smoothed corners, frosted ends |
Refractive index | 1,52 |
Abbe’s number | 50 |

Surface quality | TC (Tissue Culture Quality) |
TC= Tissue Culture, amine coated surface, suitable for most adherend cell lines (e.g. HEK U293, HepG2, MCF-7). Sensitive cell lines (e.g. PC-12) and some primary cell types benefit from additional surface coatings with ECM proteins or equivalent coatings.
