Applications of SpectraMax iD3 and iD5 Multi-Mode Microplate Readers

Absorbance
Learn all about absorbance detection – how it works, how it’s measured, and how it can be used to calculate concentration. We also provide information on common absorbance applications and assays including ELISAs, nucleic acid and protein quantitation, and microbial growth.

Cell Viability
Cell viability can be assessed by examining parameters such as cell membrane integrity or the activity of cellular enzymes. On a microplate readers, these parameters can be detected using fluorescent reagents. For example, a red cell-impermeant, DNA-binding dye only stains dead or dying cells whose membranes are compromised, while a green live-cell dye only fluoresces when metabolic enzymes are active.

DNA/RNA Quantitation
The absorbance of a DNA sample measured at 260 nm on a spectrophotometer or microplate reader can be used to calculate its concentration. Absorbance quantitation works on samples ranging from about 0.25 ug/mL to about 125 ug/mL in a microplate format. Some instrumentation enables the quantitation of very small sample volumes, as little as 2 uL. When greater sensitivity is required, fluorescence methods allow quantitation of as little as a few picograms of DNA.

ELISA
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) are used to measure the amount of a specific protein, using a microplate format, and results are most often detected via absorbance in the visible wavelength range. Chemiluminescent and fluorescent ELISA formats offer enhanced sensitivity for accurate quantitation of less abundant analytes.

Fluorescence Polarization (FP)
Fluorescence polarization (FP) is a technique that is widely used to monitor binding events in solution. It can be used to assess biomolecular interactions, including protein-antibody binding and DNA hybridization, as well as enzyme activity, and it has been adapted to basic research as well as high-throughput screening.

HTRF
HTRF®, an assay technology developed by Cisbio, combines standard FRET (fluorescence resonance energy transfer) with time-resolved measurement of fluorescence, eliminating short-lived background fluorescence. HTRF’s applications include assessment of small phosphorylated peptides, immunoassays for quantifying large glycoproteins, and indirect detection of tagged complexes such as CD28/CD86 via secondary antibodies. These homogeneous assays do not require wash steps and are amenable to small-volume microplate formats used in high-throughput screening.

Reporter Gene Assay
Reporter gene assays enable researchers to determine whether a gene is expressed and at what level. They are used to study signaling pathways, gene regulation, structure of regulatory elements, and much more. A reporter gene vector consists of a promoter or gene of interest, along with a reporter gene such as firefly luciferase, which codes for a protein whose activity can be easily measured. The vector is transfected into mammalian cells, and when the gene of interest is active in the cells, the reporter gene is also expressed and can be measured using appropriate detection reagents.
