CYTOOchips™ Y-L-A x18
The CYTOOchip is a 19.5x19.5 mm coverslip with micropatterns transferred by photolithography on a high quality and low fluorescence borosilicate glass. The CYTOOchips are compatible with all inverted microscopes. Grid coordinates are printed on the underside of the chip and enable the user to return to the exact same cell/micropattern over time. These chips represent an ideal choice for high-resolution live cell imaging when combined with CYTOOchambers.
