The RC-24 and RC-24E chambers allow for very fast solution exchange for a variety of applications. These recording chambers feature the smallest bath volumes of Warner's open style chambers.
The bath volume in these models is among the smallest of the open style chambers. This enables very fast solution exchange for a variety of applications, including patch clamp and electrophysiology studies. The small bath volumes are especially useful when using drugs in small quantities.
The floor of these chambers can be formed from either a 22 mm square coverslip or from a 22 mm × 40 mm rectangular coverslip. Each chamber requires a platform (P-1, PH-1, or PM-1) and a stage adapter to complete the assembly for mounting on a microscope.
