The plastic base of this plate is full of fluorescent particles, creating an enormous amount of uneven background signal in all visible wavelengths. I inquired if this was just a defect with my plate but apparently this "has been the case for years". They said it was possible to cut out this fluorescence with confocal microscopy but the fibers are only a couple of micrometers from the base so it will still be visible in most cases. This product is entirely unsuitable for any sort of fluorescence microscopy and the partially opaque fibers make it unuseable for brightfield as well, despite being advertised as a tool for "live cell imaging" and similar applications.

General description
Nanofiber cell culture dishes, multiwell plates and well plate inserts combine the best of 3D and 2D cell culture. The nanofibers are optically transparent to allow for live-cell imaging and real time quantification of cell mobility. The nanofibers mimic the 3D topography in vivo, and can be easily coated with ECM proteins for cancer research. The cells can be simply removed for protein or gene analysis.
The cell culture dishes, plates and inserts are available with either randomly oriented fibers or aligned fibers.
The nanofibers have higher expansion rates, better differentiation control, and has a synthetic surface with no animal contamination, ideal for stem cells research and immunohistochemistry staining. Nanofiber scaffolds can be easily shaped or sized, made from nearly any synthetic or natural polymer for customized tissue engineering. They can then be implanted in vivo or used in vitro. The standard plate dimensions available will work with current automated equipment for high throughput drug discovery needs.
For fluorescent imaging applications, we recommend using the Nanofiber Solutions chamber slides.

Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not match your product expectations.
Unfortunately the vendor has not yet found a solution for the fluorescent background noise in the material of these plates. There have been mixed reviews, it works for some researchers and not for others. The vendor recommends using their 8 chambered slides for fluorescent readings, which have a glass bottom, product Z694576.
Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
