VersaMax
Tunable Microplate Reader
Tunability Equals Flexibility
No filters are needed for the VersaMax™ microplate reader. The reader uses a grating monochromator to
select the exact wavelength you need for every assay. With a wavelength range from 340 to 850 nm, it's like
having 510 filters free.
Exceptional Performance
The VersaMax reader uses the best plate for your assay. The narrowly focused light beam and optical design give you
the same high performance with round bottom, flat bottom, or half area well plates. The dual-wavelength readings report
the actual absorbance at each wavelength, so you can analyze the data the way you want. The reader also provides
controlled temperatures, up to 45 °C, for kinetics at ambient and elevated temperatures.
Affordable
With the VersaMax microplate reader, you will never have to buy another filter. SoftMax® Pro, the industry-leading
microplate reader software, is included at no additional charge. And the VERSAmax reader is
robotics-compatible.
Applications
The VersaMax reader covers a wide range of applications:
- Microbial growth/MIC
- IC 50s/LD 50s
- Endpoint ELISAs/EIAs
- Cytoproliferation/cytotoxicity
- Colorimetric protein
- Kinetic ELISAs/enzyme assays
- Platelet aggregation
- Bacterial identification
- Clotting/clot lysis
