Equipment
///Features:
- Microplate reader measuring absorbance, fluorescence, and luminescence
- Incubation up to 60 °C
- Possibility to maintain CO2 levels in the read chamber below 5%
- Integrated syringe injectors that can be used to deliver substrates, inhibitors, enzymes etc.
- Possibility for continued reading at intervals ranging from every 20 milliseconds to several hours
- Reading above and below each well
- Reading covering excitation and emission simultaneously
- Wavelength range of 240 to 900 nm (depending on the filters available)
- Integrated control using comprehensive software
/// Samples:
- Liquid
- Microplate analysis of 6 to 384 wells
- Liquid delivery through injection of volumes between 5 and 350 µL (in 0.5 µL increments)
/// Examples of applications:
- Determining enzyme reaction dosage in continuous or intermittent mode
- Determining the dosage for cell toxicity, proliferation, and viability tests
- Determining the dosage of bioreactor cultivated algae content
- Determining the dosage of ATP in cell extracts
- Performing ELISA tests and immunoassays
- Performing antioxidant assays
- Determining the dosage of phosphorescent compounds
