BMG Labtech has introduced the Spectrostar Nano, an ultra-fast, full-spectrum absorbance microplate reader with cuvette port that is suitable for all absorbance assays.
The Spectrostar Nano offers rapid analysis at a resolution of 1nm.
It can capture a full UV-Visible spectrum from 220nm to 1,000nm in less than 1s/well and measure sample volumes down to 2ul.
The built-in cuvette port can be used for kinetic studies and quick experiments.
It can measure all standard microplate formats up to 1,536 wells.
The Spectrostar Nano allows for single pushbutton operation for basic commands, as well as specific assay protocol set up.
Full-spectrum analysis, multi-mode shaking, incubation, kinetic readings, well scanning, automated path length correction and a gas vent are just a few of the features that the Spectrostar Nano has to offer.
The most common absorbance assays such as Elisa, DNA, RNA, Protein (Bradford, BCA, Lowry), cell growth and beta-galactosidase can be performed using predefined protocols.
