The Accuris SmartReader UV-Vis Microplate Reader (model MR9610) has been designed with ease-of-use and fast results in mind. This instrument brings extensive capabilities to the lab bench and is designed for the busy lab with multiple users. The large touch screen command center is extremely user friendly and allows for fast set up of new protocols, as well as modifying and running existing protocols.
Intuitive, 10-inch color touch screen control panel
Accepts both 96 & 384 well-plates
Monochromator based system, wavelength range from 200 to 1000nm
Stand alone system, with USB flash drive drive for data transfer
Monochromator technology … no filters needed
The monochromator-based optical system allows for precise selection of wavelengths from 200nm to 1000nm, with no filters required. This range makes the SmartReader UV-Vis useful not only for typical ELISA , Bradford Lowry, and turbidity assays but also for more advanced applications such as quantitation of nucleic acids and proteins. The SmartDrop accessory plate is available to allow quick and accurate molecular quantitation using small sample droplets.
Optimized results with plate shaking and incubation
Controllable plate shaking and incubation allow for optimization of assay results. The shaking speed can be controlled at different intensities with options for timed and pulsed shaking before a reading, or in between readings when performing a kinetic assay. The linear motion efficiently and uniformly mixes all samples in both 96 and 384 well plates.
Temperature can be controlled from ambient +5C up to 45C, allowing for the processing of enzyme kinetics, and bacterial growth assays.
