SpectraMax ABS Absorbance ELISA Microplate Readers
Date：2020/3/19
Filterless readers provide consistent results with steady temperature regulation
The SpectraMax ABS and ABS Plus absorbance microplate readers provide the flexibility, sensitivity, and convenience for a wide range of assays such as ELISAs, microbial growth, and protein quantitation. Both readers feature an 8-channel read head for fast reads and a subset feature our PathCheck? Sensor. The temperature independent PathCheck sensor automatically normalizes and ensures accurate absorbance values by detecting pipetting errors. Combined with a wide application base, industry-leading SoftMax? Pro Software and validation tools, these readers fit in every lab and every budget.

Advantages:
Eliminate filters
Eliminate the need for purchasing and changing out filters with a monochromator-based wavelength selection for visible and UV-visible absorbance.
Get consistent results
Mix samples thoroughly in microplate wells with user-programmable Automix feature and monitor temperature-sensitive reactions with consistent temperature regulation from ambient to 45°C.
Integrate with ease
Integrate seamlessly with StakMax? Microplate Stacker within minutes. Integrate with all leading partner robots and with our out-of-the-box automation solution.
Pipetting errors eliminated
This reader utilizes Molecular Devices' PathCheck? Sensor to measure the depth (optical pathlength) of samples in a microplate. It also allows for the elimination of standard curves.
Optimized optical path
The reader’s unique quartz fiber optic system minimizes stray light for precise readings across a microplate. The spectral resolution ensures accuracy of DNA absorbance measurements.
Eight-channel optics
The optical design of the reader mimics a dual-beam spectrophotometer. Each well has its own sample beam and reference detector. The eight-channel system delivers both precision and speed across the microplate.
Dual wavelength reads
The reader delivers high performance with round-bottom, flat-bottom or half-area well plates. Dual wavelength readings report the actual absorbance at each wavelength making data analysis convenient.
Flexibility to read a variety of plate formats
SpectraMax Absorbance Microplate Readers can run both cuvette-based and microplate reader applications on the same instrument. Read one sample or up to 384 in a single plate read using any standard cuvette, or 96- or 384-well microplate.
Validation made easy
Verify the accuracy of your absorbance measurements with the SpectraTest? ABS1 Absorbance Validation Plate, using NIST-traceable standards. Testing can be done in your own lab, on your own schedule.
