• long term chemotaxis experiments with adherent cells
  
• ready to use system, no assembling
  
• linear gradients, stable for over 48 hours
  
• 3 chambers on one slide for parallel working
  
• adapters for different pipettes
  
• made for high-end video microscopy
  

basic principle: two large reservoirs of 40µl are connected by a narrow observation area the cells in the observation area become super-imposed by a linear and time-stable gradient
