Versatile, easy to use microplate reader with excellent support

 

Average Rating 4.7

Application Area:

Teaching basic lab skills student courses

We needed an affordable, easy to use but versatile microplate reader for our basic lab skills practical courses. This instrument has it all. One star less for ease of use, because we hoped to find an instrument with on-board computer; but a simple laptop fits nicely on the machine and can be set up for any purpose necessary. Support by the company was and continues to be excellent. User-problems are taken serious and answered in a timely, friendly, and very constructive manner.

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Analysis of different plant and animal matrices using several colorimetric methods

The SPECTROstar Nano is a very versatile UV-Vis spectrophotometer reading within the range of 220 to 1000 nm. This instrument reads several formats, i.e. 10 mm cuvettes, 6, 12, 24, 96 upto 1536 well plates. The instrument can be programmed to read single wavelengths, multiple wavelengths or a range of wavelengths. It has also a shaking/incubation functionality for microplates. The MARS software is very easy to use. Data can be exported as CSV and can be manipulated within a spreadsheet.

The SPECTROstar® Nano from BMG is a revolutionary microplate reader for absorbance measurements. The flexibility it provides makes it easy to perform low-volume absorbance assays at speeds like no other absorbance-only reader on the market.

  • Low-volume samples with the BMG LABTECH LVis Plate (2 μL)
  • Ultra-fast spectrometer to read 220 to 1000 nm in less than 1 second per well
  • Compatible with all microplate formats up to 1536-well
  • Also contains a standard cuvette port for individual samples
  • Multi-mode shaking: linear, orbital, and double orbital

Predefined protocols also make it possible to read ELISAs, RNA, DNA, protein, cell growth and more simply at the touch of a button.

Accessories

  • LVis Plate: microplate for low-volume DNA, RNA and protein quantification. It includes 16 micro-drop (2 µL) wells, a cuvette slot and optional performance testing features
  • Evaluation Plate: validates the optical functionality of BMG LABTECH microplate readers for quality control and/or qualification (IQ/OQ) purposes
