Integrated Components for Live-Cell Imaging chambers, perfusion and temperature control

Recording / Imaging Chambers Modular Design Warner’s open bath recording chambers are a family of chambers designed to fill a large number of imaging and recording needs. The modular design consists of two parts; a polycarbonate chamber (insert) and an anodized aluminum platform (holder). The platform clamps the chamber providing a seal between the chamber and coverslip. Heated platforms are used where chamber warming is required. The design of the platforms permits quick removal of the chamber for exchange of the coverslip. Stage Adapters are designed to allow the mounting of Warner imaging...

An Integrated Systems Approach Platforms function as the base for Series 20 Chambers and provide clamping to make a seal between the chamber and coverslip. Stage Adapters Stage adapters are available for all major microscopes and stages currently on the market. Integrated Components for Live Cell Imaging Heated Platform Cable Assembly Recording Chamber and Slice Anchor The CC-28 cable provides power to the heated platform. There are also 2 thermistors on the cable used to maintain and monitor the desired temperature of the sample. Our chamber selection guide, available online and in our print...

Open Bath Recording / Imaging Chambers Designed For: • Electrophysiological recordings • Optical imaging • Tissue slice and cell cultures • Low profile permits maximum electrode access to the bath • Stage adapters for all microscope stages Suction Tube Open Bath Recording and Imaging Chambers Warner open bath chambers incorporate diamond-shaped fluidics yielding laminar flow throughout the bath. The low profile design allows for excellent electrode access without interfering with optical measurements. Chambers with larger baths (e.g. RC-26) allow for insertion of round coverslips into the assembly...

Closed Bath Imaging Chambers Suction Tube Perfusion Input Image courtesy of John Geible using the JG-23 chamber. Suction Reservoir The RC-20 and RC-20H are very low volume imaging chambers featuring fast solution exchange and short working distances. An access port (Hamilton syringe compatible) at the bath input may be used to inject substances into the solution flow or to remove gas bubbles. Integrated Components for Live Cell Imaging • Closed bath chamber designs • Diamond fluidics • Ideal for fluorescence, calcium, and time-lapse imaging studies • Stage adapters for all microscope stages •...

Field Stimulation Imaging Chambers • Designed for studies involving cardiac myocytes • Open and closed bath chamber designs • Ideal for fluorescence, calcium, and time-lapse imaging studies • Stage adapters for all microscope stages Suction Tube Perfusion Input Secondary Perfusion Input The RC-21BRFS is a small volume, closed bath imaging chamber designed for field stimulation studies. It uses a pair of 25 mm round coverslips to form the top and bottom of the chamber, and the total bath volume is 263 µL. Two platinum wire electrodes are attached to the parallel sides of the oval-shaped bath....
