FLUOstar Omega Filter-Based Multi-Mode Microplate Reader

The FLUOstar^® Omega is an ideal plate reader for all life science applications. It is a multi-mode microplate reader, with six detection modes. For absorbance, it uses an ultra-fast UV/vis spectrometer or filters, and highly sensitive filters for all other detection modes.

Product Details

The six detection modes used in the versatile FLUOstar^® Omega multi-mode plate reader are:fluorescence intensity (including FRET), luminescence (including BRET), UV/vis absorbance, time-resolved fluorescence, TR-FRET, and AlphaScreen^®/AlphaLISA^®.

Read times

Flying mode (1 flash), 9 s (96), 16 s (384)

Reagent injection

Up to 2 built-in reagent injectorsInjection at measurement position (6 to 384-well)Individual injection volumes for each well (3 to 500 µL)Variable injection speed up to 420 µL/sUp to four injection events per wellReagent back flushing

Shaking

Linear, orbital, and double-orbital with user-definable time and speed

Purge gas vent

System to inject an atmosphere or to pull a vacuum into the reader

Incubation

+4 °C above ambient up to 45 °C or 65 °CThe upper heating plate of the incubation chamber operates at 0.5 °C more than the lower plate. This prevents condensation build-up on the lid or sealer.
