Molecular Devices SpectraMax i3x Multi-Mode Microplate Reader
Item#: SPECTRAMAX-i3xThe SpectraMax® i3x Multi-Mode Microplate Reader can perform a wide range of essential cell-based and biochemical assays using the included absorbance, fluorescence, and luminescence detection modes. With the SpectraMax® MiniMax™ 300 Imaging Cytometer, industry-leading SoftMax® Pro Software, and user-configurable detection modules, this unique reader enables users to add optional detection modules at any time to expand the reader’s capabilities and explore cellular pathways and protein expression on one microplate reader. This includes AlphaScreen/AlphaLisa, time-resolved fluorescence, TR-FRET/HTRF, fluorescence polarization, dual injectors, and western blot detection. Transmitted light and fluorescence channels offer the option to image stain-free or use cellular dyes to get a better view of cytotoxicity, cell proliferation, and phenotypic changes...
- Capture flash assays with ease: The SpectraMax i3x Injector Cartridge with SmartInject? Technology expands your research capabilities to include flash-based luminescence applications including dual luciferase.
- Achieve unparalleled sensitivity: The super-cooled PMT reduces background noise, providing greater sensitivity and an expanded dynamic range.
- Increase fluorescence performance: An innovative combination of xenon flash lamp and LEDs provides unmatched signal strength and superior sensitivity with Spectral Fusion? Illumination.
- User-configurable applications: User-installable detection modules expand the reader?s detection capabilities to include AlphaScreen, time-resolved fluorescence, TR-FRET (including HTRF), fast kinetics with injectors, western blot detection, and more.
- Multi-channel functionality: Two fluorescence detection channels on the MiniMax 300 cytometer enable the analysis of cell viability or cell toxicity assays, including viability assays and transfection efficiency.
- Spectral Optimization Wizard: This built-in technology enables users to optimize their assay in a single-step by quickly identifying the best excitation and emission wavelengths.
- No-stain cell analysis: The StainFree? Cell Detection Algorithm for brightfield cell segmentation enables cell counting and confluency measurement without destructive stains, simplifying the cell analysis workflow.
- Cellular pathway analysis: Cell confluence and cell viability imaging, western blot analysis, and quantitation of nucleic acids and protein, can be captured on one reader.
- Auto Intensity Adjustment: Our patented technology acquires data over a wide dynamic range without the need to re-read the plate due to saturation effects. PMT gain adjustment is bypassed with the use of high-power LEDs as part of the Spectral Fusion Illumination.
