UV-visible microplate reader SPECTROstar® Omega

for DNA quantification1536-well

The SPECTROstar® Omega is a dedicated absorbance microplate reader that can capture a full absorbance spectrum (220 - 1000 nm) in less than 1 second per well – no scanning needed. This upgradeable reader offers the highest flexibility for optimizing settings for all absorbance-based assays. The LVis Plate compatibility allows for low-volume sample measurements. The SPECTROstar Omega is a dedicated absorbance microplate reader that can capture either a full-absorbance spectrum or up to eight discrete wavelengths simultaneously. Upgrades can transform the SPECTROstar Omega into a powerful multi-mode reader with up to seven detection modes, Simultaneous Dual Emission and injectors. Features High-speed absorbance measurements Measurements in up to 1536-well plates Incubation up to 45 °C or 65 °C Multiple shaking options Well scanning with up to 900 data points per well High-precision injectors with simultaneous reagent injection and detection Low-volume detection Easily integrated into automated systems Detection Modes UV/vis absorbance spectra Measurement Modes Endpoint and kinetic Spectral scanning (absorbance) Well scanning Microplate Formats 6 to 1536-well plates, user-definable LVis Plate with 16 low volume microspots (2 μL) Microplate Carrier Robot compatible Light Sources High energy xenon flash lamp Detectors CCD Spectrometer Wavelength Selection UV/Vis Absorbance Spectrometer Full spectra or 8 distinct wavelengths in < 1 sec / well Spectral Range Spectrometer 220 - 1000 nm Sensitivity Full spectrum captured in < 1 s/well Selectable spectral resolution: 1 nm, 2 nm, 5 nm, 10 nm OD range: 0 to 4 OD
