Used to seal samples on any surface
The chamber is formed by putting a thin spacer (adhesive gasket) on a surface: 25 mm coverslips for example. The adhesive gaskets form sealed chambers if used with smooth surfaces. The minimum thickness is 150 micron. You can change thickness by using a number of spacers. The inside opening is 21/13 mm.
Procedure: put 25 mm coverslip into the holder UTIC-25; remove one protective layer from adhesive gasket; position the gasket above the coverslip; remove the second protective layer; put your sample inside the opening; cover with the second coverslip. Alternatively, the sealed chamber can be formed directly on any glass surface: put the gasket on the glass surface first, fill with your sample, and seal with a glass coverslip. The adhesive is easy to remove after use. The holder (UTIC-25) will fit directly into the cooling or heated microscope stages TC-T35. The ultra-thin chambers can be used on regular glass slides, heated slides TC-GSH and heated glass plates
Can be used with immersion optics and for multi-photon imaging
