FluoroDish™ Glass Bottom Petri Dishes

for growing and observing cells in imaging related research

FluoroDish Glass Bottom Petri Dishes
Advantages of these premium dishes:
  • Optical quality glass bottom for improved imaging quality (RI=1.525)
  • Superior UV transmission (30% at 300nm)
  • Available with black wall for low background fluorescent measurements
  • Low toxicity for embryo research
  • Improved accessibility with low access angle
  • Reduced sample volume for expensive chemicals

The tissue culture grade polycarbonate FluoroDish™ petri dishes are available in a range of sizes, with clear and black wall and with coatings. Through their advanced design features, they provide exceptional image quality needed for use on inverted microscopes for applications such as high resolution image analysis, micro-injection and electrophysical recording of fluorescent-tagged cells.

The FluoroDish™ uses a special formulated adhesive with a low toxicity that is durable and optically clear. Glass thickness stays within 0.17 ±0.01mm and permits use of immersion objectives with water, glycerin or oil. The glass bottom is flush with the microscope stage or heating stage to ensure high stability and optimum heat exchange.

The flat and thin glass bottom allows the use of short working distance objectives with a larger numerical aperture (NA) and a higher magnification (up to 100x for the objective). This in return provides superior imaging quality for both classical and fluorescence microscopy. The glass bottom dish with the black wall has been especially developed for fluorescence imaging providing less background scattering and reduced auto-fluorescence.

The FluoroDish is available in three sizes: two types with 35mm diameter and one type with 50mm diameter. The most popular 35mm clear wall type with 23mm diameter well size is available with clear and black wall. The clear wall type is also available with Collagen or Poly-D-Lysine coatings. The 35mm dish has outside dimensions similar to that of a Corning 35mm dish and will be compatible with most 35mm heaters and perfusion adapters.

The 35mm dish with 10mm well size has a low side wall for easy microelectrode access and low solution volume (only 100-200ml). The access angle is comparable to that of the 50mm dish. Available with clear and black wall.

The 50mm dish has a well of 35mm providing a large growth area. It has a low access angle and grips for easy handling. Available with clear and black wall.
