POLARstar OPTIMA - high-performance filter-based multidetection microplate fluorimeter offering 5 detection modes and simultaneous dual emission detection (SDED)
|
|

- Fluorescence Polarisation
- Fluorescence Intensity - including FRET and multilable applications
- Time-Resolved Fluorescence - including DELFIA®
- Absorbance - UV/Vis with path length correction
- High-Performance Luminescence (flash and glow) - including BRET, DLReadyTMcertified
The POLARstar OPTIMA multidetection microplate reader offers all the features of the FLUOstar OPTIMA plus fluorescence polarisation and a unique simultaneous dual emission detection system, which allows the detection of two emitted wavelengths at the same time. Simultaneous Dual Emission Detection is especially useful for FRET, TR-FRET, BRET and Fluorescence Polarisation assays since the plate only has to be read once, and when compared to other microplate readers, gives increased throughput, improved sensitivity and lower %CVs - no other reader in this price range offers simultaneous dual emission. |

The POLARstar OPTIMA supports all the applications of the FLUOstar OPTIMA. Furthermore this microplate reader offers a fantastic speed and accuracy advantage in FRET, BRET, and FP assays used in:

• molecular binding detection
• receptor studies (e.g.GPCR)
• cAMP detection using FP
• protein/protein interaction
• kinase profiling using a competitive FP immunoassay
• SNP Genotyping using FP
• Caspase assays using FRET-based biosensor protein
