169 11th street San Francisco, CA 94103 www.phasicscorp.com

In business for over 40 years Precision Plastics is your premiere source for custom laboratory equipment. Including: Microscope Enclosures, Plethesmographs, Mazes, Restrainers, Insect Equipment, Laser Covers, Maglev Tracks and much more. Design and engineering help is available. Quantities from 1 to 1,000.

Phasics offers an innovative camera for quantita- tive phase imaging that plugs on any microscope. Based on a patented technology, the SID4Bio provides a great contrast for cell observation without marker. The quantitative phase infor- mation enables following cell, yeast and bacteria morphology and dry mass over time or rigor- ously comparing populations.
