Molecular Device SpectraMax ABS and ABS Plus Microplate Read
Product advantages
The SpectraMax® ABS Microplate Reader bridges the gap between the affordability of filter-based readers and the flexibility of monochromator-based systems. The SpectraMax® ABS Plus Microplate Reader can run both cuvette-based and microplate reader applications on the same instrument. Read one sample or up to 384 in a single plate read using any standard cuvette, or 96- or 384-well microplate. For more sample throughput, both readers can be easily integrated into full robotic systems and can easily adapt to fit sample processing requirements.
Product Details
Tunable for filterless flexibility The SpectraMax ABS readers use a grating monochromator to select the exact wavelength needed for every assay. The ABS reader ranges from 340-850 nm in wavelength and the ABS Plus reader ranges from 190-1000 nm, which is equivalent to having 510 or 810 free filters, respectively. Exceptional performance The advanced optical and electronic design of the readers give the same high performance with round-bottom, flat-bottom or half-area well plates. Select up to six wavelengths in a single read to maximize the number of data points collected in an experiment. Temperature control up to 45°C allows kinetic assays at ambient and physiological temperatures.
