This page is
under construction. Sorry. However, some
details are available: We use a system
that provides direct and uniform heat to the entire surface upon which cells
are grown. Cells are plated on specialized dishes that incorporate an
optically correct coverglass as the bottom surface. The coverglass is
externally coated with an optically transparent, electrically conductive
material that heats as current is passed through it. The dish temperature is
constantly monitored, and the current applied to the bottom surface is
adjusted as necessary to maintain the correct temperature. An objective
heater is also used to prevent the objective lens from drawing heat away from
the culture dish, and a perfusion pump can be installed to provide a supply
of fresh media to the sample. |
