Low Profile Perfusion Chamber for Glass coverslips
The most flexible and easy to use perfusion chamber-assembly for upright and
inverted microscopes. To accommodate the wide range of possible applications,
this system consists of three movable and replaceable elements: bath chamber,
magnetic adjustable tubing/electrode holders and a stainless microscope stage
adapter-insert. It can be used with upright or inverted microscopes, fluorescent or
water immersion objectives, tissue slices or single cells, and an be used as
stand alone or can be easily adapted to perfusion systems.
The chamber is made out of polycarbonate. It is only 4 mm dip. This low profile fits under
objectives of upright microscopes. The I.D. of working area is 21 mm, wide
enough to work with tissue slices. In fact, this design is popular among
researchers, who work with brain slices. Water immersion objectives can be
easily positioned inside the wide opening. A small volume version of the chamber
is also available. The bottom of the chamber is a replaceable no.1 glass coverslip, which lets you to use the chamber with inverted/fluorescent microscopes as
well. The coverslip is attached to the chamber by using provided adhesive
layers. Coverslip is flashed on the bottom of the chamber. Easy to clean after use. Note: Can be used with any thickness 25mm coverslips.
The chamber fits inside stainless microscope stage adapter,
specify microscope model when ordering. The chamber can be rotated inside the stage to provide required orientation of the
sample. Custom stages for non-standard microscopes are
available upon request.
Three magnetic tubing/electrode holders extend this flexibility even further. They
can be positioned anywhere around the chamber, so that tubing is
not in the way of objectives or recording electrodes. Furthermore, the holders
can adjust the angle and, as a result, tubing can approach the sample from
any direction. The holders fit to perfusion manifolds. They
also can be used to position reference electrodes or temperature probes, or
even tubing to deliver gases, for example oxygen, over the sample. Included stainless suction
tubing provides smooth perfusion. If you are planning to use this system during perfusion
experiments, all you need is a outflow unit for suction to remove solution during perfusion.
Can be used for imaging and
recording. Click on image to enlarge. 3-D Model.
