Customer Feedback
Over more than a decade, ibidi has earned the trust of customers worldwide.

"The 35 mm µ-Dish is invaluable for high resolution imaging performed in support of my work. The optical plastic is fantastic substrate for building compartmentalized neuronal cultures. Thank you for making great products.”

“ibidi made it much simpler for me to prepare cells for confocal microscopy and live-cell timelapse microscopy. Cells that attached poorly to glass grew better on ibidi µ-Slides/Dishes. The angiogenesis slide allowed me to minimise the amount of cells and reagents required for an experiment.”

“We've been working with the ibidi Pump System and Labware for over 5 years now and have recommended it to numerous colleagues as well. The plastics are ideal for cell culture and all forms of imaging, including automated imaging (easy to focus) and all sorts of fluorescence (clear, optically superb plastics). The ibidi Pump System in fact made the endothelial cell under flow the default of our lab! And above all, the technical support is always fast and efficient.”

“The ibidi platforms have opened new possibilities for our group to utilize small volumes of blood to characterize the cell biology of platelets and white blood cells. Moreover, we have greatly benefited from collaborating with the technical representatives at ibidi to discuss ways to multiplex the ibidi platforms to address our experimental questions.”

“ibidi has made the tedious process of correlated light- and scanning electron microscopy remarkably simplified with their µ-Dishes 35mm, high glass bottom Grid 500. This product combines all of the essential elements for high quality imaging: optically flawless glass essential for high resolution light microscopy, media reservoirs suited for a variety of imaging systems, and a grid system to rapidly relocate specimens in the scanning electron microscope. This product has made the difficult easy.”

„I work with the ibidi slides because they are superior to any other product of this kind on the market. They are easy to use, give consistent results, economical and are suitable for a wide range of applications. The flow slides have without a doubt transformed my labs research and made many new experiments possible. Well done ibidi! I am indeed extremely happy with the ibidi products.”

„ibidi slides are compelling!
We tested the open μ-Slides with 8 wells for live-cell super-resolution imaging by dSTORM with SNAP-tags. The quality of the super-resolved images was impressive.“

„The „angiogenesis slide“ from ibidi is the only possibility that I know to receive a constantly good optical quality in the tube formation assay with saving of Matrigel at the same time.
In comparison to other systems, the heating stage from ibidi shows superior thermal stability and enables working with high humidity (>80%). This is not possible with other systems but is indispensable for long-term studies.“

„Actually, ibidi dishes have single-handedly revolutionized my science. The cells that I use (horizontal retinal cells from fish) are extremely intolerant to being plated on any form of glass, even if the glass is treated with several different compounds. Because of this issue, I was only able to perform fluorescent microscopy on upright confocal microscopes; they allowed us to plate our cells on plastic dishes and image from above. Now, with the ibidi dishes, we are able to use better quality inverted microscopes and higher powered objectives. Our results have proven strong, and we have mentioned the power of ibidi products in our most recent publication.
I am so happy that I learned of your great products through a colleague. Microscopy will never be the same for our laboratory. So far I have purchased 3 boxes of 35mm ibiTreat high dishes. Thank you very, very much.”

„The cooperation with ibidi made it possible to provide cell culture systems with a unique optical quality. The use of ibidi slides allowed for image acquisition in the necessary optical resolution, so that development processes in living proteoplasts of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana could be explored. The µ-Slides allow monitoring of developmental processes in highest resolution. This enables us to use genetic techniques for recording and controlling the necessary processes of organ development.”
