Luminescence 96 plate reader
Using 96 highly sensitive silicon photomultipliers, Luminescence 96 is an entirely new type of luminometer. Its ultra-compact design provides access to cutting-edge technology for every lab workstation ending reliance on centralised equipment.
Sensitivity
Luminescence 96 is the first plate reader to implement highly sensitive silicon photomultipliers. Sophisticated electronics work to pull large amounts of information coming from these detectors.
All 96 detectors adapt according to the signal intensity of the corresponding well, reaching a maximum sensitivity of 100 fmol ATP/well.
Reducing phosphorescence
A built in shutter reduces dark count noise and background phosphorescence is cancelled out by a filter.
Dynamic range
Luminescence 96 has a linear dynamic range of up to 8 decades. To access the full potential of the silicon photomultipliers, three readout methods are used: photon counting, integration, and micro integration.
Cross-talk
With Luminescence 96, every millimetre counts. By brining the microplate withing a 10th of a millimetre of the detection unit, cross-talk is practically eliminated.
Luminescence 96 App
The Luminescence 96 App is as flexible as the reader itself. It can be used on multiple devices and supports Microsoft Windows and macOS. With plug-and-play technology, simply connect the reader and start your assay. The Luminescence 96 App can be used on a desktop PC in your lab, notebook, or even on Windows tablets. Regular updates bring new features and enhancements, so the user is always up to speed. There are no license limitations and updates are free of charge.
