The WillCo-dish® "Series GWSB-5030" (Black dish!), is one out of a series of four types of black walled WillCo-dish® Glass Bottom dishes, all available in a single unit packaging. Per Blister-Pack one (1) glass bottom dish and 120 dishes, per case.
Per single dish, we use a PET-G MED BLEU thermo-formed blister, with a Tyvek® "heat-sealed" cover.
The size of the black wall/- lid "Series GWSB-5030" dishes is 50 x 7 mm. with a glass aperture of 30 mm. in diameter (Height of the well in the bottom: 1.0 mm.). This is our larger version glass bottom dish, with the smallest diameter in the glass opening, in the bottom.
Black "wall-and-lid" WillCo-dish® Glass Bottom dishes enjoy a growing level of interest, specially from Live Cell Scientists.
The transparent and the black containers differ in the amount of (Laser-) light exciting your live cells. Black dishes do not allow light to enter the dish (but from the glass bottom aperture) and they absorb more (laser-) light scattering around, inside the dish.
Black dishes provide better options for (low) intensity control. Live cells are (very) sensitive to the intensity of the (laser-) light administered; the light may terminate your cell 's development/life.
There is a lot of information (e.g. on the Confocal List Server) on the subject of this delicate balance between "(laser) light intensity" and "image quality".
