Microplate Readers

EZ Read 2000 is the best choice for laboratories that require a microplate reader that can be used for a range of absorbance applications. This versatile microplate reader is capable of measuring samples in many different microplate formats: 12-, 24-, 48- and 96-well plates. The EZ Read 2000 uses tuneable wavelength scanning so that any wavelength can be chosen from 340nm up to 800nm. The EZ Read 2000 is PC-controlled using new, intuitive Galapagos software for data acquisition and analysis.

Key Features of EZ Read 2000

• No need for filters! Monochromator optics for measurements from 340 nm to 800 nm enables a wide range of assays to be performed
• Automatic calibration of single channel optical system with self-check and for precision measurements
• Shaking ensures complete mixing of solutions, cells to stay in suspension and colored solutions to be homogenized
• Wavelength scanning  for contamination detection, peak absorbance detection and product formation studies
• 12-, 24, 48- and 96-well microplates with standard ANSI SBS footprints can be used for flexible applications
• Real-time reference measurement channel for the improved accuracy

Applications

• Absorbance measurements: ELISA, protein quantitation, cell proliferation and cell survival assays
• Enzyme kinetic measurements requiring automatic readings at timed intervals
• Wavelength scanning to determine sample purity
• Cell-based assays requiring shaking to maintain cells in solution
• Assays measuring the changes of absorbance of NADH at 340nm
• Contamination detection, peak absorbance detection and product formation using scanning across a range of wavelengths
