Gamma-irradiated flow cell apparatus for creation and direct, nondestructive online microscopic examination of bio films

Supplier:  IBI Scientific™ CFCAS0003

Catalog No. 15-455-102

Includes: System Components:

• Flow cell with attached No. 1 coverslip
• Three-cylinder acrylic bubble trap
• Two ABS plastic manifolds (one manifold is attached to the peristaltic influent tubing; the other consolidates the effluent PVC tubing)

Additional Components:

• 14 in. (35.6cm) length of 0.04 in. (1.1mm) I.D. Tygon™ LFL peristaltic pump tubing
• 6 ft. (183cm) length total of influent and effluent 1/16 in. (1.5mm) clear PVC USP class VI tubing
• Luer-Lock™ effluent interrupts
• Identification tags
• Six pinch clamps

Description

Single-use setup eliminates carryover and the need for sterilization or disinfection methods. Optional bubble-trap design creates a low, positive pressure on the medium flow, alleviating undesirable liquid-delivery pulsation to the flow cell

• Detachable/re attachable top to allow for insertion of test samples (polymers/metals) to cells injected into the chamber through the self-sealing port
• Large, 7.7cm chamber allows harvesting of significant volumes of bio films for RNA and protein analysis
• Coverslip (glass or TCT-treated APET plastic) attachment surfaces enable viewing by regular or inverted microscopy
• Detachable top for coat attachment surface with a variety of materials (seeded cells, proteins, films, ECM) to test cell response

Shipped completely assembled in an airtight package; needs only be connected to a culture medium reservoir and a peristaltic pump (sold separately).
