19 Heat optimization plates
The carry tray heat optimization plate will guarantee full contact with the dish. This gener-
ally ensures much more stable temperature conditions for cells. The plate fits in the area
under the gas hood. The plate can be taken out for cleaning and serves as a convenient way
to carry several dishes between the CO
2
incubator and the ART workstation.
Do not autoclave the carry tray. This will damage the tray, as the high tempera-
ture will make it bend out of shape.
Place the dish where it fits the pattern. There are carry trays for Nunc
®
and Falcon
®
dishes.
Use only the correct type of carry trays for your dishes.
