Ionovation GmbH - Bilayer Slide


	General aspects of Ionovation Bilayer Slides

Designed for automated bilayer production and validation with the Ionovation Bilayer Explorer
Bilayer within the working distance of a high numerical aperture objective (100µm)
Low sample volumes (100µl)
Integrated micro-channels providing fast fluid exchange of cis and trans compartments
Bilayer apertures available from 10 - 400µm
Highest optical grade glass bottom; clear borosilicate
Suitable for all objective lenses and magnifications; air, water, and oil immersion
No autofluorescence
Biocompatible and chemically robust composite slide material


	Direct microscopy access No parts to be removed or assembled for observation Fast fluid exchange with integrated micro-channels 5 extra-wells for calibration or test purposes To be used with standard pipettes and equipment

3D Laser Scanning Micrograph of an automatically painted bilayer

Bilayer apertures produced by laser drilling or plasma-arc-welding can be precisely adjusted from a few to several hundrets of microns

Biocompatible and chemically resistant support materials

Free access to both sides of the bilayer membrane
