Description
The Thermo Fisher Varioskan LUX is a multimode microplate reader designed for flexibility in optical assays—supporting absorbance, fluorescence, luminescence, and more—within a single platform. Its modular optics and software expandability make it suitable for diverse workflows.
Features:
- Supports multiple detection modes: absorbance, fluorescence (top/bottom), luminescence, Time-Resolved Fluorescence (TRF), FRET/BRET, etc.
- Flexible optics engine allows upgrades or mode additions as workflows evolve.
- Software integration facilitates kinetic mode, spectral scanning, well scanning, and automation interfaces.
- Compatible with plate stackers or robotic systems to streamline high-throughput workflows.
Specifications:
- Wavelength range: e.g. ~230 nm to 900 nm (model spec)
- Detector: PMT or cooled CCD (depending on variant)
- Plate formats: 6-well to 384-well (or higher)
- Read modes: endpoint, kinetic, spectral scanning, well scanning
- Data export: LIMS, Excel, CSV, etc.
- Dimensions / footprint / weight: (manufacturer spec)
