This Multichannel Microplate Reader is a compact, standalone, 8-channel microplate reader. Its streamlined design offers touch screen interface, rapid reading, superb optics, on-board curve-fitting software, and built-in printer to meet the requirements of modern laboratories.
On board data reduction calculations include single- and multi-point curve fitting, including regressions, plus cutoff absorbance calculations, all with step-by-step user prompting.
The high-performance Multichannel Microplate Reader performs fully-automatic readings for 96 wells in about 12 seconds with full user command and minimal errors. The operator is given step-by-step user prompting for on-board data diminution computations, which include curve fitting, regressions and cutoff absorbance calculations. The integrated thermal graphics printer also allows the system to plot standard curves.
Equipped with an interactive touch-screen LCD with USB mouse option, the instrument offers pre-programmed modes for performing the most commonly used calculations including single point calibration, point-to-point curve fit, polynomial regression, linear and sigmoidal regression (log and linear), cutoff absorbance, multipoint % absorbance.
Other superior features of the microplate reader include user-programmable open system, selectable plate formatting, alphanumeric test naming, automatic interpretation options, duplicate well options, curve plotting and editing, and flags and error messages.
