The TEM cell (107 x 51 x 51 cm, septum height 23 cm) was positioned vertically inside a thermostatic room maintained at 37°C.
Setup
Microplates were located in the middle section of the cell on the right and on the left side of the septum on a thin plastic shelf (2 mm).
Additional info
A 96 well microplate (127 x 84 x 15 mm) or two 24 well microplates (127 x 84 x 22 mm) placed one upon the other were used. Well diameters and volume of culture medium were 6.4 or 16 mm and 200 µl or 2 ml, respectively.
The first hour of exposure took place immediately after cell seeding and treatment with mitogenic or apoptosis inducers, the second and third hours took place after 24 or 48 h of culture.
