It is important that the appropriate dish inserts are selected for the culture dishes used (Falcon, Nunc,
Vitrolife) to ensure there is direct contact between the dish and the heated surface.
Dishes which present no opportunity for an air gap between dish and heated surface can be placed
directly on the heated surface with no need for a dish insert.
The use of dish inserts requires temperature calibration with the dish insert in place (see “Dish Inserts”
on page 12)
