µ-Dish 35 mm, high ESS

A 35 mm imaging dish with an Elastically Supported Surface (ESS) used for growing cells under “in vivo-near” conditions

• “in vivo-near” cell culture on elastically supported surface
• High resolution microscopy on soft cell culture surface
• Based on the standard µ-Dish ^{35 mm, high}

Applications

• Cell culture under “in vivo-near” conditions, e.g. cardiomyocytes
• Cellular mechanics research
• Immunofluorescence stainings
• Live cell imaging of cell differentiation on soft surface
• Transfection
• Suitable for DIC , when used with the special DIC Lid

Technical Features

• 40 μm thick PDMS (Polydimethylsiloxane) layer on top of a 100 μm thick glass cover
• Available stiffness: 1.5 kPa, 15 kPa, and 28 kPa
• Biocompatible soft cell culture material
• High walls with a standard height for easy handling
• Lid with lock position, which minimizes evaporation
• Rim for easy opening
