Small Volume Perfusion System with Glass coverslip Bottom
Similar to PCCS1 chamber but with smaller working volume. Inside diameter is only 11 mm. The chamber has two separate openings for solution inflow and outflow to provide smooth perfusion and prevent bubbles from coming in. Low profile permits easy access with electrodes, pipettes and immersion optics. Combined with miniature holders, forms a perfusion sysstem.  Easy to use, simply release adhesive layer on the coverslip (even with media still present), and attach the chamber from the top. Coverslip is flashed on the bottom of the chamber.

The chamber is made out of polycarbonate. It is only 4 mm dip. This low profile fits under objectives of upright microscopes. The I.D. of working area is 21 mm, wide enough to work with tissue slices. In fact, this design is popular among researchers, who work with brain slices. Water immersion objectives can be easily positioned inside the wide opening. A small volume version of the chamber is also available. The bottom of the chamber is a replaceable no.1 glass coverslip, which lets you to use the chamber with inverted/fluorescent microscopes as well. The coverslip is attached to the chamber by using provided adhesive layers. Coverslip is flashed on the bottom of the chamber. Easy to clean after use. Note: Can be used with any thickness 25mm coverslips.

The chamber fits inside stainless microscope stage adapter, specify microscope model when ordering. The chamber can be rotated inside the stage to provide required orientation of the sample. Custom stages for non-standard microscopes are available upon request.

Three magnetic tubing/electrode holders extend this flexibility even further. They can be positioned anywhere around the chamber, so that tubing is not in the way of objectives or recording electrodes. Furthermore, the holders can adjust the angle and, as a result, tubing can approach the sample from any direction. The holders fit to perfusion manifolds. They also can be used to position reference electrodes or temperature probes, or even tubing to deliver gases, for example oxygen, over the sample. Included stainless suction tubing provides smooth perfusion. If you are planning to use this system during perfusion experiments, all you need is a outflow unit for suction to remove solution during perfusion. Can be used for imaging and recording.
