A µ-Slide (chambered coverslip) suitable for co-cultivation assays in combination with microscopy
- Cells share soluble factors but grow separately
- Possesses low evaporation properties and is thus suitable for long-term assays
- Has excellent optical quality and is therefore suitable for fluorescence microscopy
Applications
- Co-cultivation of different cell lines or primary cells
- Mesenchymal-epithelial interactions
- Paracrine interaction of different cell populations in vitro
- Cell or spheroid culture in gel matrices
Technical Features
- Two major wells each with 9 minor wells
- Cells share soluble factors but grow separately
