Improving Fluorescence-Based Assay Performance Using Automated Digital Microscopy

21 Apr 2015

One of the main limitations of fluorescence detection is background fluorescence, either from autofluorescence from endogenous cellular material, impurities from reagents added to the assay, unbound fluorescent conjugates or fluorogenic probes, or unreacted photoprotein. This study demonstrates three unique ways in which the incorporation of imaging, in addition to cellular analysis, allow for a more accurate analysis of the event taking place within the microplate well, and improve assay performance.

Agilent BioTek Gen5 Software for Detection

Agilent Technologies

Agilent BioTek Gen5 software for Agilent BioTek multimode and single-mode microplate readers is an integrated tool for endpoint, kinetic, spectral scanning, and well area scanning. It controls all the functions of the plate reader and has powerful data analysis capabilities for a broad range of applications. Gen5 microplate reader software is also used to integrate BioTek plate readers to BioTek BioStack and other automated systems.
