Description
This is an intelligently designed, modular, stackable, solvent resistant, acrylic all-purpose incubation chamber for immunostaining slides and other applications where humidity- and temperature- control are desirable. This model accommodates 20 slides and is designed for applications requiring elevated temperatures (up to 80°C) and protection from ambient light.
Useful for all kinds of immunostaining procedures and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH).
Features
- Chamber interior readily observable at all times
- Light Shielding model reduces infrared light transmission, making it suitable for fluorescent techniques
- Heat and cold stable (-20°C to +80°C)
- Use in refrigerator or incubator
- Thin but strong walls support stacking of multiple chambers
- Chamber interior easily accessed for cleaning
- Glass slide positions easily adjusted
- Use of high-quality rubber gaskets to maintain proper humidity make chamber suitable for long-term storage
- Resistant to solvents and acids such as alcohol and hydrochloric acid
- Suitable as a reaction box for immunoprecipitation in agar gels (Ouchterlony methods) or immunoelectrophoresis
- Convenient for staining blood smear or cytodiagnosis samples
Applications
- Immunostaining
- Microarray
- FISH
- Ouchterlony immunoprecipitation
- Colorimetric enzyme techniques
- Blood smears and other slide-based cyto-diagnostics
