Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP5709976
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
Provided is a culture apparatus for microscopic viewing that enables effective microscopic viewing at high magnification of samples such as cells suspended in a culture solution while the samples are maintained at a uniform temperature. The culture apparatus for microscopic viewing is used to microscopically view a sample (B) placed on a microscope stage (S), and is provided with a housing unit (3) that houses the vessel which contains a culture solution (A) and the sample (B); a lid (53) that closes the aperture on the upper surface side of the housing unit (3); a transparent sheet top heater provided in the portion of the lid (53) that corresponds to the viewing area; and a temperature detecting means (29) in which a thin wire detection unit (31) penetrates into the interior of the housing unit (3) and further penetrates into the interior of a well plate (W) to directly measure the temperature of the culture solution (A) supplied thereto. On the basis of the temperature information from the temperature detecting means (29), a controller (65) controls the temperature of the transparent sheet top heater using a feedback method.
