Colorimetric and turbidimetric analysis of endotoxins using the absorbance detection mode
Torn between a colorimetric or turbidimetric LAL assay? Whichever path you take, BMG LABTECH’s absorbance readers deliver dependable results every time.
Le PHERAstar® FSX est notre dernier lecteur multimodes le plus sensible pour le screening à haut débit, combinant cette sensibilité avec des temps de lecture rapides. Grâce au système unique du module optique, à la double émission simultanée, au spectromètre UV/vis, à la technologie Enhanced Dynamic Range, au système AAS et aux lasers AlphaScreen® et TRF, le PHERAstar FSX effectuera votre analyse avec facilité et rapidité, même dans des microplaques à 3456 puits.


Ne vous inquiétez plus de l'installation de filtres et de dichroïdes : le PHERAstar FSX est livré avec des modules optiques faciles à manipuler, optimisés par dosage, qui contiennent tous les filtres, miroirs, dichroïques et/ou polariseurs spécifiques à l'application, et sont automatiquement reconnus par le lecteur de microplaques. En outre, le PHERAstar FSX est équipé de quatre tubes photomultiplicateurs adaptés et testés (PMT) qui sont automatiquement sélectionnés pour le mode de détection approprié. Vous pouvez également mesurer des analyses avec deux longueurs d'ondes d'émission simultanément grâce à l'émission double simultanée.
Les technologies de plage dynamique optimisée et de mise au point automatique rendent les réglages manuels superflus et l'optimisation de la détection plus facile que jamais.
À des fins d'automatisation HTS, le PHERAstar FSX peut être facilement intégré dans des systèmes automatisés, et offre des capacités d'intégration robotique améliorées et un contrôle multi-utilisateurs.
Le PHERAstar FSX est réservé à la recherche.
