Amazing plate reader!

I really like the PheraStar plate reader because it’s so easy to adjust the parameters and so easy to visualise the changes in proliferation because of colour coding.

Application Area: Proliferation assay plate reading

PHERAstar has exceptional reliability and flexibility; tech support EJ is amazing!

PHERAstar is the Must Have instrument to enable our fast-paced drug discovery research. I have been in the pharmaceutical industry for almost 10 years and had used a variety of microplate readers from different vendors. PHERAstar stands out to be top of the line product with exceptional reliability and flexibility. The extra bonus from purchasing PHERAstar from BMG Labtech is the after sales care - I'd like to give a big shoutout to BMG's technical specialist EJ (Edward “EJ” Dell) for his expertise, excellent customer service, and his "can do " attitude that helped us in many occasions to tackle technical challenges in setting up novel assays. It's a great pleasure to work with EJ and we are very happy with PHERAstar instrument. Highly recommend this product!

Extremely Easy to Use with Great Sensitivity

Not only is this instrument very easy to use, but it is also the most reliable and user-friendly instrument in our lab. We use our PHERAstar FSX daily for different fluorescence applications and standard absorbance readings, and it is fast, sensitive, consistent in performance, and reliable. The Microplate Stacker is a huge plus. Just load the plates and walk away. That is how easy and reliable it is.

Application Area: Genetic Marker Application

We rely on PHERAstar readers as a core analytic instrument.

The PHERAstar FSX instrument is a high quality, reliable, plate reader. Our assay development platform relies on PHERAstar readers for absorbance, fluorescence, luminescence, and homogeneous time resolved fluorescence. We have excellent experience with BMG as a manufacturer/ partner both in the knowledgeable and responsive sales reps and their quality technical service reps. The BMG MARS software provides easy-to-manage instrument control, customizable method protocol development with many available curve fitting tools and data analysis workflows that are powerful and easy to customize; all with a relatively shallow learning curve. Results report building is customizable, and data can be exported to software such as Excel for additional processing. The MARS software complies with 21CFR part 11 regulations for data integrity allowing for use in a GMP lab setting.
