5x plan-apochromat and 96 well PECON universal plate adapter
We obtained a 5x Plan ApoChromat lens for the Zeiss NLO-LSM880 together with a universal stage adapter from PECON (KM) that fits 85.5x 127.75 mm culture plates (i.e. 6, 12,24,48,96,384 well culture plates). Automated live cell multiwell analyses at 37 degrees C will be possbile but without CO2 and humidity control for now. The old slider holder is still available to accommodate 25×75 mmm slides, labtek slides and culture dishes (35, 60 mm diameter). Many thanks to Bart Spee and Louis Penning (DGK GZD) who made these accessories available to the equipment at the CCI.
