Product catalog summary
Delta T Accessories Overview
The document provides detailed information on various accessories for the Delta T system, which are designed to enhance the functionality of culture dishes used in microscopy. These accessories include perfusion adapters, coverglass lids, cooling rings, heated lids, and stage adapters, each serving specific purposes to improve experimental conditions.
Hinged Perfusion Adapter
The Bioptechs Hinged Perfusion Adapter is designed to support perfusion needles in culture dishes, maintaining low-volume perfusion over cells during long-term experiments. It includes a supply and drain system, balanced by a Micro Perfusion Pump, and can accommodate additional supports for various apparatuses.
Coverglass Lid
The Coverglass Lid is used to create an optical surface on the liquid in the Delta T Culture Dish, eliminating optical effects caused by fluid motion. It supports a coverglass above the specimen, ensuring uniform contrast in transmitted light microscopy. The lid is reusable and bridges the gap between open and closed systems.
Cooling Ring
The Bioptechs Cooling Ring is an immersion device that reduces specimen temperature by providing a thermally conductive barrier. Made of autoclaveable stainless steel, it is easily adjustable and facilitates the exchange of dishes in the stage adapter.
Heated Lid
The Bioptechs Delta T Heated Lid provides a condensate-free optical surface for perfusion and trans-illumination on an inverted microscope. It is powered by a 2.5-volt source and includes a CO2 port. The lid is available with perfusion capabilities, recommended for use with the Bioptechs Micro-Perfusion Pump.
Brain Slice Adapter
The Brain Slice Adapter allows for the observation of thick tissue sections in a perfusable, temperature-controlled environment. It is compatible with standard tubing and adjustable to accommodate different specimen geometries.
Stage Adapters
Stage adapters are essential for Delta T systems, providing temperature readings, electrical contacts, and support for dish translation. Various adapters are available to suit different microscope models.
Ordering Information
The document includes a list of products with part numbers, descriptions, and prices. The Delta T Starter Kit and individual components like culture dishes, adapters, and lids are available for purchase, with prices listed for U.S./Canada and additional charges for international orders.

The typical application is to maintain low-volume perfusion over cells during long term-experiments. Perfusion adapters are sold in pairs. One hinge and needle is a supply, the other is a drain. The balance between supply and drain can be maintained continuously with the use of the Micro Perfusion Pump. Additional supports can be added to hold gas jets, pH probes, cooling apparatus, or other items which do not require critical positioning. Perfusable Coverglass Lid The Coverglass Lid is a cover for the Delta T Culture Dish to be used when imaging to create an optical surface onto the liquid in the dish. This eliminates the optical effect of fluid motion at the air to liquid surface above the cells that causes the contrast of the image to change. Therefore, when acquiring a series of images in a transmitted light, contrast enhancing mode of microscopy, all images will have a uniform contrast. Forming an optically flattened glass to media surface on the top of the cells eliminates this problem. The Coverglass Lid fits loosely on the Delta T Culture Dish and supports a 1 mm x 22 mm coverglass in the center of the field 3mm above the specimen. The Coverglass Lid is reusable and helps the Delta T bridge the gap between an open dish and a closed

system environment. The Coverglass Lid is made of 304 stainless steel, autoclaveable, and available with or without perfusion. This item and/ or the Heating Culture Dish Cover are nearly essential for multi-user facilities. Heated Lid The Bioptechs Delta T Heated Lid is a device which will provide a condensate free optical surface on the top of a Delta T Dish through which specimens can be perfused and trans-illuminated on an inverted microscope. It is reusable and powered by a 2.5 volt source from either a battery or the optional auxiliary power supply in the Delta T Controller. A CO2 port is...
