All SpectraMax® M series multi-mode microplate readers measure UV and visible absorbance, and fluorescence intensity measurements on microplates and cuvettes as standard. The SpectraMax® M2 and M2e readers provide two detection modes in one platform, and offer the the added functionality of bottom-read fluorescence for cell-based assays (M2e). The SpectraMax® M3, M4, M5 and M5e readers offer a modular, upgradeable dual monochromator microplate reader platform with a wide range of high performance multi-mode capabilities ideal for life science research and drug discovery screening.
- Upgradeable platform for changing laboratory needs (M3, M4 and M5)
- Three-mode cuvette port for assay development
- Dual monochromator tunability
- Automated absorbance pathlength correction
- Comprehensive data analysis, validation and compliance
- Robotics compatibility
All SpectraMax® M series readers accept cuvettes and 6-, 12-, 24-, 48-, 96-, and 384-well microplates. Standard features include UV-visible absorbance in tunable 1,0 nm increments up to 4,0 nm, and fluorescence intensity with spectral scanning across the wavelength range in 1 nm increments and up to four wavelength pairs per protocol supporting FRET based assays.
