LabChip® EZ Reader by Revvity

"This is great for product substrate electrophoretic separation in enzyme inhibition assays. The sensitivity is not as good as the LC3000. The light source is weaker than the LC3000 too. It is a label-free assay. Plus the read time is about 25 to 45 min per 384 well plate."

"This product is easy use in ELISA to measure chemokines, cytokines and proteins in tissue of the rat’s cerebral."

"Great for end point read and kinetics. We use it for screening and characterizing compounds. The only problem is that chips can be finicky."

"I love the lap chip technology. It's an effective real time assay. Our center has screened over 5 targets using the Lab Chip technology."

"Lab chip reader covers new trends in enzyme targeted drug discovery where we can detect amount of substrate and product conversion with mobility shift assay. This technology covers prioritising the selective compounds in typical kinase inhibitors. In this amazing piece of equipment we can detect koff and kon rates specifically to choose the inhibitors to accelerate small molecules into next phase of drug discovery."

"Easy to use with moderately high thorughput. Gives very accurate and reproducible results."

"High quality data and very sensitive. Reproducible data, easy data output. Easy for beginners to use."

"Real time measurements allows faster assay development and better understanding of enzyme kinetics. However the chips are expensive and a sizeable chunk of work is needed to fully utilise a chip."

"When all is working well this piece of equipment really helps our kinase research but maybe needs to be simplified to make maintenance easier."
