Measurement principles for the wide
range of applications
|
The
POLARstar is a fully automated
microplate based multi-detection reader which incorporates
numerous
different measurement principles:
- Fluorescence (UV and VIS
range)
- Time Resolved Fluorescence
TRF
- Fluorescence Intensity top
to bottom capabilities FI
- Fluorescence Resonanace
Energy Transfer FRET
- Polarization FP
- User choice of Fluorescence
filters included
- Absorbance reading mode (UV and VIS
range)
- User choice of Absorbance
filter included
- Temperature control and microplate-shaking included
- Adjustable bandwidth range
- 6-384-well plate capability
By integrating a high intensity xenon flash lamp and liquid
light guide technology, the BMG models can cover the wavelength
range from 240 to 740 nm in 96 well plate
formats.
Measurement Modes:
Wavelength: Range 250nm to 740nm wavelength range, with the
option
to include up to 8 Excitation and 4 emission wavelengths with
initial choice
of 2 filter pairs. Measurement Time: 16 seconds for full 96
well plate reading.
Other Features can be included:
Top-to-bottom reading, programmable shaking, 25 to 45
°C incubation and Polarization
|
|
|
|
Incubation
Temperature-regulated heating provide uniform incubation from 25
to 45°C.
Endpoint, slow and fast kinetic measurements
Kinetic applications with up to 250 kinetic points can be defined,
with interval times from 100 ms to several hours. In addition,
there is the possibility to measure where it is important in a
kinetic study.
Multi-color detection
The fast filter wheels and the ability to define up to 8 sets of
filters, each with individual gain and measurement timing
parameters, allow analysis of multiple fluorophores in a single
well (TRF, FRET, dual-emission, DNA-detection). |
