ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an improved micro drop culture dish which is comprised of a substantially flat bottom surface portion and a wall portion integrally secured thereto. The bottom surface portion and wall portion are constructed of a rigid, transparent material. A plurality of circular wells having open upper surfaces are embedded into the substantially flat bottom surface portion as integral, concave indentations. These wells may also be cylindrical in shape with one end integrally attached in a perpendicular manner to the bottom surface portion. The wells may be concentrically arranged in a six-around-one manner, or in a variety of other useful patterns. The bottom surface portion may have numerical or alphabetical markings which identify individual wells for tracking purposes. This micro drop culture dish may be fitted with a detachable cover which is about 8 mm deep and of a size and shape which would allow it to cooperatively and circumferentially attach to the wall portion of the dish. The cover may have a plurality of protrusions which allow for slow gas exchange.
