Miniature Incubator, TC-MWP
Designed for long-term live cell imaging and time-lapsed microscopy. It can be used with standard
multi-well plates and optional inserts: TC-I-20x30, TC-I-30x50, TC-I-SL for slides and
micro-fluidics devices, TC-I-35/TC-I-60 for standard 35mm Petri
dishes and for larger dishes (up to 60mm
diameter), TC-I-3 - for slides
and chambered coverglasses (x3), and TC-I-4 - for CSC coverslip holders and
Petri dishes (x4).
The inserts can be used with a set of adjustable tubing
holders MH-MIS to position sensors or perfusion tubing for
continuous media exchange. Requires a heated cover (purchased separately) to prevent
condensation and to control CO2 or hypoxia. Built-in multiple ports for
tubing and accessories, probes and sensors. Fits all brands of motorized
stages (Ludl, Prior, ASI, Marhauser) and type K Zeiss/Leica stages.
Some models of motorized stages from Nikon, ThorLabs and Ludl might
require optional adapter extensions to fit (see the table below).
Requires a temperature controller.
The
whole bottom is open for access with a microscope objective (for closed heated bottom
incubator - consider TC-MWPHB model).
Can be upgraded with an objective heater for immersion optics.
