The instrument is essentially two spectral scanning spectrophotometers in one, having both cuvette and 6 to 384 well micro-plate reading capabilities
Thermo Electron says it has brought new functionality to its Multiskan Spectrum spectrophotometer.
By coupling the SkanIt software platform with the Multiskan Spectrum, the company says it has not only achieved an extremely flexible package but also one with FDA 21 CFR part 11 compliance capabilities.
The Multiskan Spectrum provides unlimited wavelength selection without ever changing a filter.
This is extremely useful when swapping from one assay to another.
Measurement from low UV through to visible offers the possibility to do a wide range of assays.
The instrument is essentially two spectral scanning spectrophotometers in one, having both cuvette and 6 to 384 well micro-plate reading capabilities.
This allows maximum flexibility in sample formats, all within a small footprint.
SkanIt Software allows easy assay optimisation, flexible data handling and convenient report formatting.
With a unique steplist feature that makes assay setup highly visual and flexible, workflow is described as logical and simple to follow.
SkanIt Software is available in two versions: a research edition for scientists working in life science research, and a drug discovery edition offering features needed for compliance with the FDA's 21 CFR Part 11.
