ibidi GmbH's µ-Slide Chemotaxis 3D chamber is designed for chemotaxis and migration studies of non-adherent cells in 3D gel matrices.
The slide allows the motion tracking of non-adherent chemotactically active
cells like lymphocytes, dendritic cells, or macrophages in different gel
matrices. So far, comparable cell-based assays only allowed the analysis of
migrating cells in a two-dimensional fashion. With the ibidi µ-Slide
Chemotaxis 3D it is possible for the first time to simulate, analyse, and
quantify the motility of non-adherent cells in an in-vivo like environment
over a 48-hour period.
ibidi® GmbH, Munich, Germany, develops, produces and distributes micro-Slides
(µ- Slides), a "Lab-on-a-Slide®" technology for the
image based analysis of cells. The µ-Slides represent a new family of
devices for the functional analysis of living cells. The µ-Slide product
family consists of different slide types for cell-culture and high end
optical microscopy.
