"Series GWSB-5040":
The WillCo-dish® "Series GWSB-5040" (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-5040" dishes is 50 x 7 mm. with a glass aperture of 40 mm. in diameter (Height of the well in the bottom: 1.0 mm.). This is our largest version glass bottom dish, with the largest 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", "cell and tissue response to the light" and "image quality".
Our WillCo-dish® Glass Bottom dish, the "Series GWSB-5040", a black walled dish, is a great Glass Bottom dish.
The pearl of the various types of our WillCo-dish®-es! This dish is very popular, among many others, in the field of "Fertility & Infertility" (I.V.F.).
Dedicated for I.V.F.:
Designed by experts in the field of I.C.S.I. / "microinjection" fourteen years ago and ever since, used for:
Pre-implantation diagnostics,
I.C.S.I., as well as
I.M.S.I., in many I.V.F. laboratories, all over the world.
This dish is perfect for these applications, because of the large glass surface (40 mm. glass aperture), as well as the low side wall/rim (7.0 mm.) to ensure easy access for both pipets. It has a High Quality 170 micron thin "German Borosilicate Glass" bottom, for High Magnification, in I.M.S.I.
We are sure that you will appreciate our "Series GWSB-5040" dish, Single Unit Packed and STERILE R, for the treatment of your ova, embryo 's and sperm cells.
Our GWSB-5040 dishes, have been tested in the independent "Quality Control Laboratory" of EggCentris N.V., in Zellik (Brussels), Belgium. As a result we point out to you, the following three (3) " Notes ":
Note 1: Do NOT put "adhesive as well as mineral oil containing" consumables, in an incubator for six days, for
hatching purposes of embryo's.
TRANSFER all embryo's, in to a Certified "all plastic" - or a Certified "all glass" dish,
BEFORE PUTTING THEM IN TO AN INCUBATOR!
Note 2: WHY YOU DO NOT WANT TO PUT A GLASS BOTTOM DISH, IN TO AN INCUBATOR?!
WHEN PUTTING A GLASS BOTTOM DISH IN TO AN INCUBATOR, THE MINERAL OIL MAY DISSOLVE THE
ADHESIVE, USED TO BOND THE GLASS TO THE BOTTOM OF THE DISH, THUS RELEASING THE SOLVENTS LEFT
IN THE ADHESIVE, AFTER UV-CURING. EVEN IF THERE ARE NO SOLVENTS USED, ADHESIVE IS STILL A
CHEMICAL WHICH, ONCE DISSOLVED, MAY HURT THE (HATCHING) EMBRYO.
THESE SOLVENTS MAY REACH THE EMBRYO'S AND TERMINATE THEIR DEVELOPMENT!
Note 3: All WillCo-dish® Glass Botom dishes, all WillCo® Products, are: "FOR RESEARCH, ONLY".
