Immunofluorescence With the ibidi Chambers
Channel Slides
The ibidi channel slides are particularly suitable for immunofluorescence stainings: The geometry of the ibidi Channel Slides is ideal for the exact exchange of small medium amounts, which is necessary during immunocytochemistry stainings. In addition, the coverslip bottom of the channel µ-Slides eliminates the need for additional coverslips.
Advantages
- Meniscus-free phase contrast microscopy
- Low volumes of reagents needed
- Homogeneous cell and antibody distribution
Limitations
- Storage time is restricted to several weeks, because of the gas exchange through the plastic material from which the slides are made

The µ-Slide VI 0.4 is ideal for general low-volume immunofluorescence assays.
The µ-Slide I Luer enables immunofluorescence staining in low-density cultures in the context of flow experiments.
