Biochrom has launched the Anthos instant microplate solution (Aims), a package that contains all the microplate instrumentation to run Elisa and other microplate-based applications.
Aims is said to be ideal for laboratories that handle a large number of absorbance-based assays and require flexibility for future techniques.
The package includes the Zenyth 200 microplate reader with cuvette UV/Vis spectrophotometer.
The monochromator-based instrument reads 6-384 well plates at any wavelength between 190-1,000nm, with temperature control.
The built-in spectrophotometer is said to save bench space, and there are pre-programmed cuvette methods for nucleic acid and protein measurements.
The Fluido 2 four-channel microplate washer handles up to four different wash buffers, up to 50 different programs and 20 different plate types - including strip plates and round-bottom wells.
In addition, the Aims package contains ADAP Prisma PC analysis software and a laser printer.
Aims includes Anthos microplate instrumentation and software, all CE marked and manufactured under a rigorous quality system.
