SpectraMax® ABS microplate reader bridges the gap between the affordability of filter-based readers and the flexibility of monochromator-based systems. Equipped with advanced technology that provides flexibility, sensitivity, and convenience for a wide range of assays such as ELISA, microbial growth, and protein quantitation, all in an incredibly small footprint.
- Compact design
- Minimum volume and maximum throughput with 96-well microplate compatibility
- Powerful data analysis with SoftMax® Pro Software
- Optimal performance with validation tools
SpectraMax® ABS readers use a grating monochromator to select the exact wavelength needed for every assay. The ABS reader ranges from 340 to 850 nm in wavelength. 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 upto six wavelengths in a single read to maximise the number of data points collected in an experiment.
