16-channel dispenser of this reader enables flash luminescence reading times of less than 60 seconds for 384-well plates and less than three minutes in the 1536-well format
CyBio announces a new flash luminescence reader that, it says, enables superior throughput and data quality in functional screening of G-protein coupled receptors and calcium channels most useful in drug discovery.
Based on its technology for 1536-well flash luminescence detection, the throughput is now boosted by the introduction of the CyBi-Lumax flash HT.
The new 16-channel dispenser of this reader enables flash luminescence reading times of less than 60 seconds for 384-well plates and less than three minutes in the 1536-well format.
The CyBi-Lumax flash HT is the perfect solution for dispensing of cells to start the receptor activation signal within the reader.
A unique cell recirculation function ensures homogeneous cell dispensing for unsurpassed data quality.
Moreover, cell stress has been eliminated by optimisation of pumps and nozzles.
Due to excellent sensitivity, reliable results were obtained with one thousand cells per well, says CyBio.
Further time and cost savings for cell-based GPCR and calcium channel assays are enabled by an easy combination of agonist and antagonist screening using the CyBi-Lumax flash HT.
