Abstract: The final goal of this work was to introduce a fluid substrate for future studies with living cells. Such a substrate would offer unique possibilities for quantitative investigations as fluid surfaces exhibit no static surface defects. Wetting of fluids on transparent substrates in ambient water was employed to realize such a substrate. The fluid must be insoluble in water and bio-compatible. As no studies on comparable systems were available, a suitable combination of fluid and substrate had to be identified first. In a next step, its wetting behavior had to be investigated in detail. Here static and dynamic aspects as well as material interduffusion turned out to be important aspects. [...]
