Testimonials
"Most common absorbance-, luminescence- and fluorescence-based assays are able to be run without having to hunt high and low"
"We need to get consistent, high-quality data regardless of location […] for that reason, we chose the PHERAstar FSX"
"The PHERAstar is a very high-end instrument which is very good for high-throughput screening and is the most sensitive instrument I have tested for BRET."
"The CLARIOstar shows a fantastic performance with fluorescence, luminescence and UV measurements […] We are therefore very satisfied with this device and we strongly recommend it"
"The CLARIOstar microplate reader is essential to all the research we do […] Just love it!"
