Fluorescence multi-mode microplate reader FLUOstar® Omega

luminescenceUV-visibleELISA

The FLUOstar® Omega is a multi-mode microplate reader with three detection modes. It utilises an ultra-fast UV/vis spectrometer or filters for absorbance as well as highly sensitive filters for all other detection modes. The FLUOstar Omega is the ideal plate reader for life science applications. The FLUOstar Omega is a versatile multi-mode microplate reader with three detection modes: fluorescence intensity (including FRET and TRF), luminescence (including BRET) and UV/vis absorbance. Features High-speed absorbance measurements Measurements in up to 384-well plates Top and bottom reading Incubation up to 45 or 65 °C User-defined shaking Well scanning with up to 900 data points per well High-precision injectors with simultaneous reagent injection and detection Low-volume measurements Detection Modes Fluorescence intensity - incl. FRET Luminescence (flash and glow) - incl. BRET UV/Vis absorbance spectra Measurement Modes Top and bottom reading Endpoint and kinetic Sequential multi excitation Sequential multi emission Spectral scanning (absorbance) Ratiometric measurements Microplate Formats 6 to 384-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 Low noise photomultiplier tube CCD spectrometer Wavelength Selection Optical filters: ex and em wheels for 8 filters each UV/vis absorbance spectrometer: full spectra or 8 distinct wavelengths in < 1 sec/well Spectral Range Filters 240 - 740 nm or 240 - 900 nm for FI 240 - 740 nm for LUM Spectrometer 220 - 1000 nm for ABS; wavelength precision: ≤ 0.5 nm
