4-3 Stage
1 Placing the Specimen
(Figs. 13 to 16)
With the IX2-SFR or IX-SVL2 Stage (Fig. 13)
Place the specimen on the center of the stage.
}In the case of a slide glass specimen, place the specimen with the cover
glass facing down.
}If the specimen is prone to slide on the stage, attach the stage clips
(IX-SCL) @ and clamp the specimen down with the clips.
With the IX-MVR Mechanical Stage + IX2-SP Stage (Figs. 14 & 15)
}96-well or 24-well microtiter plates, etc. are held in place by the speci-
men holder.
Microtiter plates with dimensions of max. 136 mm x 92 mm can be
accommodated in this way.
1. Open the spring-loaded finger of the specimen holder @ and slide the
microtiter plate into the holder frame. Gently release the curved finger to
clamp. (Fig. 14)
}To secure other vessels than microtiter plates, various optional holders
are available. A Terasaki plate holder ² is available for holding Terasaki
plates (72-well, or 60-well). When using this, it is necessary to replace the
stage scales with those provided with the plate holder. Petri dish holder
³ is available for 35 mm, 54 mm and 65 mm diameter petri dishes, and
a slide glass holder | is available for holding slide glass, and the IX2-
BCTP* ƒ is available for a blood cell test plate holder. (Fig. 15)
* A blood cell test plate or other calculating chamber for bacteria and
eosinophil with mounting section dimensions corresponding to H 77 x
V 35 x D 2 mm can be used. A 60 mm diameter petri dish can also be
used.
With the CK40-MVR Mechanical Stage + IX2-KSP Stage (Fig. 16)
1. 96-well or 24-well microtiter plates can be held directly in place by
widening the specimen holder @.
2. To secure other vessels than microtiter plates, use one of the following
holders provided with the mechanical stage.
· Terasaki plate holder ² (AB4488): For test plate, 35 mm diameter petri
dish holder | or 65 mm diameter petri dish
· Slide glass holder ³ (AB4489): For slide glass or 54 mm petri dish
}The IX2-BCTP blood cell test plate holder (Fig. 15 ƒ) can also be used.
