Improved cell viability for multi-day cell-based microplate reader assays
Maintain optimal cell health and assay reliability over extended times with SpectraMax® iD3s/iD5e readers and the SpectraMax® aer Gas Mixer—ideal for long-term live-cell workflows.
Enhanced Cell Viability for Multi-Day Assays Using SpectraMax® Readers with Gas Control
- Improved Cell Viability Over Time
Achieve 3-day viability comparable to standard incubators using controlled CO₂ and O₂ environments. - Integrated Gas Control
SpectraMax® aer Gas Mixer enables precise environmental tuning (0.1–15% CO₂, 1–21% O₂) directly within the reader chamber. - Streamlined Workflow
SoftMax® Pro Software automates kinetic data collection with preconfigured protocols—no manual intervention required. - Flexible Assay Compatibility
Supports both RealTime-Glo™ and CellTiter-Glo® assays for continuous or endpoint viability measurements. - Consistent, Reproducible Results
Reduced variability and evaporation with sealed plates and edge-well buffering ensure reliable long-term data. - Ideal for Drug Screening & Toxicology
Enables extended monitoring of cell response to treatments in pharmaceutical, environmental, and toxicology research.
