μ-Slide VI 0.4 μ-Pattern ibiTreat, lin20, pit170
At a Glance
- Line micropatterning with a confined one-dimensional adhesion area
- Optimized for microscopy with exceptional optical clarity
- Ready-to-use & sterile: Unpack-and-start
Applications
- Defined One-Dimensional (1D) Cell Positioning on Microlanes – Enables precise spatial confinement and imaging of single cells or cell clusters
- Single-Cell Polarization and Migration Assays – Ideal for studying geometry-driven migration, cytoskeletal dynamics, and organelle trafficking
- Neuronal Cell and Organelle Outgrowth – Physical boundaries support applications such as neurite extension, neuronal projections, and cell–cell communication.
- Cell Cluster Polarization – Facilitates the orientation and interaction of epithelial and endothelial cells along defined adhesive patterns
- Precise Cell Alignment – Ideal for microscopy-based transfection studies, proteomics, and metabolic activity assays
- Live Cell and Fluorescence Imaging – Optimized for high-resolution long-term or fluorescence microscopy of both living and fixed cells
- Immunofluorescence stainings – Facilitates detailed protein localization and cell signaling studies
- Labware Format: also available in the µ-Slide 8 Well high (#83814)
Technical Features:
- Precision µ-Patterning – The µ-Slide features an ibiTreat micropatterned surface enclosed by an advanced ibidi Bioinert surface, ensuring selective cell adhesion.
- Exclusive Bioinert Surface – Outperforms standard ultra-low attachment (ULA) surfaces:
- Ensures an environment free from any unwanted adhesion of cells or proteins
- Long-term stability for days or weeks
- Biologically inert, preserving cell viability and behavior
- Superior Imaging Compatibility – The Bioinert surface is applied to the ibidi Polymer Coverslip, delivering unmatched optical clarity for high-resolution microscopy.
- Non-Fluorescent, Phase Contrast Compatible – Patterns remain non-fluorescent but slightly visible under phase contrast, facilitating easy alignment and analysis.
- Compatibility - Fully biocompatible materials, compatible with different protein and peptide coatings as well as with staining and fixation solutions
- Different Slide Formats - Available on either the µ-Slide 8 Well high or µ-Slide VI 0.4
