Glass Bottom Dishes 50mm玻璃底盘

MatTek's Glass Bottom Culture Dishes allow researchers to produce high-resolution microscopic images of cultures growing in standard-size disposable plastic petri dishes. We manufacture Glass Bottom Culture Dishes using high volume, automated procedures to ensure both lot-to-lot reproducibility and cost-effective pricing to the end-user.

Dish Diameter

We offer glass bottom dishes in 35 and 50 mm diameters. The 35 mm dishes are manufactured by Corning Incorporated, and the 50 mm dishes are Falcon dishes manufactured by BD Biosciences.

Glass Diameter

The first step in our automated dish production process is to precisely cut a 7, 10, 14, or 20 mm diameter opening in the center of standard 35 mm Corning or 50 mm Falcon culture dish.


        Glass Thickness

Next, a high quality German glass coverslip of standard thickness （typically  0号, 1.0号, or 1.5号） is attached to the bottom of each dish covering the opening. These coverslips are high quality borosilicate glass of the highest hydrolytic consistency and are well adapted for a broad variety of high resolution microscopy applications.

Coating

Glass bottom dishes come uncoated or coated with poly-d-lysine or collagen in order to facilitate growth of your specific cell type. The coatings are monolayer coatings which do not affect the optical properties of the glass bottom dishes.
Applications

Microscopic applications in which these glass bottom dishes are routinely used include: Confocal Microscopy, High Resolution Microscopy, Fluorescence Imaging, Live Cell Imaging, Phase Contrast Microscopy, Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy, Polarized Light Microscopy, Time Lapsed Photography, and Video-Enhanced Microscopy. Our glass bottom dishes are also used in studies that incorporate green fluorescent protein （GFP） and microinjection techniques.
