A 4-well silicone insert for live cell imaging of both adherent and suspension cells
- Allows long-term microscopy assays of single cells
- Cultivation of small numbers of cells without evaporation risks
- Conical wells for superb optical quality
- 25 pieces in a transport dish
- Used for self insertion into 6 or 12 well plates, or other formats
Please note: Not to be uesd without transferring the micro-Insert
Applications
- Live cell imaging of adherent and suspension cells
- Immunofluorescence assays
- Immobilization of cells in small wells, e.g., for 3D assays
- Performing long-term microscopy assays lasting up to several weeks
- Co-cultivation of cells
- Cell tracking of very small cell numbers over time
- Cell differentiation, e.g., single stem cells
Technical Features
- Four small 2.0 mm x 1.5 mm microscopy wells with a 4:3 digital format
- Suspension cells cannot escape the observation field
- Adhesive underside
- Transferable to any flat clean surface
- No material is left behind upon the insert’s removal
