Features of Multiskan Spectrum
With its excellent feature set, the Multiskan Spectrum is ideal for a wide range of photometric applications, such as nucleic acid and protein analysis, enzyme assays, cytotoxicity and cell proliferation assays as well as apoptosis assays.
- Unlimited wavelength selection for both spectral analysis and for easy change from one assay to another
- Assays requiring measurement from low UV to visible wavelengths can be performed
- Reads both cuvets and 6- to 384-well microplates, offering flexibility from single sample measurements to screening assays
- For increased assay throughput, the Multiskan Spectrum can easily be integrated with automated systems (e.g. Thermo Scientific RapidStack microplate stacker)
- On-board incubator for temperature sensitive assays and on-board shaker with selectable speed
- Easy assay setup, flexible data handling and convenient report formatting with the Thermo Scientific SkanIt Software
Warranty and Service Offering: 1 year
Recommended for: Nucleic acid analysis; Enzyme assays; Protein analysis; Kinetic assays; Cytotoxicity and proliferation assays; Apoptosis assays; ELISA assays
