Growth of human lymphocytes in Petri dishes placed inside incubator connected to a 2-channel temperature and CO2 controllers.
The pictures taken before and after 60 hours (2.5 days) incubation show cells growing to cover the whole bottom of the Petri dish.

Miniature Incubator with heated glass bottom for motorized and
type K stages, TC-MWPHB
For open bottom incubators go to TC-MWP
Designed for long-term live cell imaging and time-lapsed microscopy. For use with standard multi-well plates. Fits all brands of motorized
stages (see table below).
Incorporates heated glass bottom.
Requires a heated cover lid (purchased separately) to prevent condensation and to control CO2
and hypoxia. Built-in multiple ports for
tubing and accessories, probes and sensors.
The bottom is closed with 1mm glass (for open bottom incubator, to access with immersion objective -
consider TC-MWP model).
Consider a modified incubator for easy positioning of tubing to
deliver media and test solutions to custom devices.
Miniature Incubator with heated bottom, TC-MWP-6
The metal heated bottom of this incubator has round cutouts, so there is no obstruction on the way of optical path
(x6 for 6-well plates, different number and pattern of cutouts can be made for different plates).
Designed for long-term live cell imaging and time-lapsed microscopy. For use with standard multi-well plates. Fits all brands of motorized
stages (see table below).
Requires a heated cover (purchased separately) to prevent condensation and to control CO2
and hypoxia. Built-in multiple ports for
tubing and accessories, probes and sensors.
The bottom thickness is 2mm, the aperture diameter is 30mm (for
6-well plates).
Recommended for long distance optics because wider microscope objectives might
not fit inside the cutouts.
For open bottom incubator, to access with immersion objective -
consider TC-MWP model.
Consider a modified incubator TC-MIW for easy positioning of tubing to
deliver media and test solutions to custom devices.
