Imaging Spacers
IMAGING SPACERS
Imaging spacers are ultra-thin adhesive spacers that peel-and-stick to coverglass or microscope slides to confine specimens without compression. Layer multiple spacers to custom build chambers to any depth desired.
Thin, double-sided adhesive spacers confine specimens without compression. For high-resolution microscopy, sandwich specimen and spacer between two No. 0 coverglass. Imaging spacers can be fabricated in different materials and thicknesses for specific applications. The adhesive also used to make Wound Splints, HybriWell, and SecureSeal incubation chambers is now available in sheets that may be purchased in a single layer thickness or prepared in multiple layers for your convenience. Please visit the Wound Healing for more information.
SecureSeal adhesive is available in sheets too. Sheets may be purchased in single-layer thickness or prepared in multiple layers for your convenience.
Applications
- Imaging
- Microscopy
- High-temperature single-molecule kinetic analysis
- anti‐Stokes Raman scattering microscopy

These adhesive sheets are made using the same SecureSeal™ adhesive as is used to make HybriWell™ and SecureSeal™ Incubation Chambers. Thin, double-sided tape on a non-woven carrier. Clear, polyester liner on one surface, white clay coated paper on the other. SecureSeal™ Sheets consist of various thickness to choose from. These double sided adhesive sheets measure 7 x 10 inches.
Silicone isolator™ sheet material allows researchers to create their own removable hydrophobic barriers to isolate specimens. Where additional sealing is required, SecureSeal™ adhesive on one or both surfaces is recommended.Silicone sheet material is also available in CultureWell™ “water-clear” silicone, which is highly recommended for sensitive cell culture applications.
