2. Description of the Related Art When observing a biological sample such as cells, it is important to observe a living biological sample. It is conceivable that a biological sample is placed in a petri dish and cultured, and microscopic observation is performed in this state. However, in this method, the culture solution evaporates and concentrates, microorganisms in the air are mixed into the culture solution, or gas components in the air dissolve in the culture solution and the components of the culture solution change. As a result, the culture conditions change and become inappropriate.

In order to cope with such a problem, for example, it is conceivable to prevent oil from coming into contact with the culture solution by spreading oil on the surface of the culture solution. When mixed with the culture solution, the culture solution may be altered, or the surface may be shaken due to the vibration of air, which may hinder the observation of the biological sample. It is also conceivable to provide a lid to form an enclosed space, and culture the biological sample under certain conditions in this enclosed space.However, in this method, water droplets adhere to the inner surface of the lid, and the biological sample is observed. Becomes difficult. Further, it is also conceivable to put a dropping lid on the liquid surface of the culture solution.However, in this method, a gap remains between the petri dish wall and the dropping lid, and the culture solution and air come into contact with this gap. The same problem occurs.
