    Heating System 4 Slides – Silver Line 4 Equipment This section provides a brief overview over all parts of the ibidi Heating System 4 Slides including a description of the characteristics. 4.1 Components of the ibidi Heating System 4 Slides The components of the ibidi Heating System 4 Slides are listed below.
  • Page 17: Stage Top Incubator Overview

    4.2 Stage Top Incubator Overview The parts of the ibidi Heating System 4 Slides are set up as a stage top incubator as shown in Figure 4. The ibidi Heating System 4 Slides can be combined with the ibidi Gas Incubation System – Silver...
  • Page 18: Ibidi Temperature Controller - Silver Line

    4.3 ibidi Temperature Controller – Silver Line The ibidi Temperature Controller – Silver Line is designed to precisely operate the different ibidi Silver Line heating devices, including the Incubation Chamber 4 Slides – Silver Line. In total, 6 channels are available, each channel accommodating one heated component (e.g., the Heated Lid and Heated Plate of the Incubation Chamber 4 Slides).
  • Page 19: Heated Plate And Magnetic Holder

    4.4 Heated Plate and Magnetic Holder The Heated Plate provides the base for the ibidi Heating System 4 Slides. It fits into any microscope stage with a mounting frame for multiwell plates. The Heated Plate offers four cavities to mount µ- Slides for parallel observation on the microscope.
  • Page 20: Heated Lid

    26 mm. The upper glass part of the Heated Lid is heated. The electrical cable is connected to the ibidi Tem- perature Controller – Silver Line. The Heated Lid fits exactly and securely onto the Heated Plate.

  • Page 22: Operation

    Heating System 4 Slides – Silver Line 5 Operation Before starting an experiment, check that the ibidi Heating System 4 Slides fits on your microscope stage, and that your cell culture vessels are compatible with the Holder. Connect all parts (Section 5.1) and perform a temperature adjustment as explained in Section 5.4.
  • Page 23: Start Operation Of The Ibidi Heating System 4 Slides

    5.2 Start Operation of the ibidi Heating System 4 Slides The ibidi Temperature Controller – Silver Line is switched on by the dip switch at the back. Make sure the display shows “RUN” (see Section 5.3.1). The system immediately starts heating up the heated devices (Heated Plate, Heated Lid).
  • Page 24: Run/Stop Mode

    Depending on the heated components used, different connector ports (output channels) at the back of the ibidi Temperature Controller – Silver Line can be used (Table 4). Accordingly, the information of one, two, or three heated components with the designations Plate, Lid, Glass or Obj is shown per display.
  • Page 25: Select Temperature Sensor

    “Setup” entry and pressing the round button. The mode dialog will open. Mode Each channel of the ibidi Temperature Controller – Silver Line can be set to an “On” or “Off” state. For standard operation all channels must be turned on.
  • Page 26: Temperature Adjustment In The Sample

    Figure 19: Info display. 5.4 Temperature Adjustment in the Sample The ibidi Temperature Controller – Silver Line controls the temperature of the actively heated com- ponents (Heated Lid and Heated Plate). The temperature in the sample results from the interaction of all heated parts with the supporting microscopy stage and the sample.
  • Page 27 2. Connect the external temperature sensor (thermocouple type K) to the plug at the back of the ibidi Temperature Controller – Silver Line. The connected external temperature sensor will appear in the display. 3. Fill the provided culture vessel (µ-Slide 8 Well high) with water or medium. Volumes should be the same amount you need for your experiments.
  • Page 28: Sample Preparation

    Heating System 4 Slides – Silver Line 5.5 Sample Preparation Check that the cell cultureware you intend to use fits into Heated Plate of the ibidi Heating System 4 Slides. Prepare the cells according to your protocol and place the multiwell plate into the Heated Plate mounted on the microscope stage.

  • Page 30: Maintenance

    (e.g., Barrycidal 36 or Pharmaci- dal). All parts of the ibidi Heating System 4 Slides can be cleaned from the outside. We recommend using ultrapure water for cleaning. Fingerprints on the Heated Lid can be removed using isopropanol (70%) or lens/eyeglass cleaning wipes.
  • Page 31: Troubleshooting

    Depending on the incubating conditions, small volumes might evaporate quickly, especially during long-term experiments. If you have an actively controlled humidifying device (e.g., ibidi Gas Incu- bation System), increase the set value for relative humidity. Additionally, we suggest using silicone oil (e.g., Anti-Evaporation Oil, ibidi, 50051) to decrease evaporation.
