Warner Instruments is pleased to introduce the New YC-1 Flow Chamber specifically designed for monitoring yeast cell growth in the presence of changing media and using time-lapse microscopy.
The unique PDMS flow cell of the YC-1 allows the user to seamlessly and rapidly change the liquid environment while observing yeast cell proliferation in a bi-dimensional manner over multiple cell cycles – all without cell washout.
For use with inverted microscopes only, the YC-1 Flow Chamber offers models with resistive heating or Peltier temperature control options.
Warner Instruments is a designer and manufacturer of biomedical devices for the electrophysiological, cellular and neurological sciences.

MicrobiologyMicrobiology is the study of microorganisms including protists, prokaryotes, fungi, and, often, viruses. Microorganisms are a useful research tool as genetic vectors and, in immunology, for antibiotic susceptibility testing, cellular biology and genetics. Microorganisms commonly grow readily in incubators with microbial culture media; this can contain chromogenic supplements to differentiate between cell lines. Estimate your culture’s density of microorganisms with colony counters, or screen and select colonies for desirable clones with automated colony pickers. Additionally, equipment is available to monitor environments for the presence of microbes and identify with microbial identification instruments.
