Chapter 1 Introduction
The SmartReader™UV-Vis is an automated microplate reader for ELISA
assays. Through absorbance readings, it can determine the concentration, as
well as positive or negative detection of antibody and antigen in samples when
used with ELISA kits and solutions. The instrument can also be used to test for
purity and quantitate nucleic acids and proteins.
Key Features:
1) 10-inch color touch screen.
2) Operating system allows acquisition, editing and saving of data.
3) Stand-alone system incorporates built-in processing, it can be optionally
connected to a PC with the use of SmartReader software.
4) Graphical interface displays a representative plate for easy setting of well
parameters: blank, sample, standards, positive/negative, quality control
and multi-value comparisons.
5) Dual optical channels, one used for sample detection, and one used for
reference.
6) End-point method, kinetic readings, and spectral scanning can be
performed.
7) Accepts plates with or without lids. Top heating prevents condensation.
8) Xenon lamp offers long life: 109flashes (1,000,000,000), equivalent to
approximately 1,300,000 plate reads.
9) Plate incubation feature allows accurate and uniform temperature control
(≤0.5°C deviation between wells).
10) Top reading optical path with continual self-checking and automatic
calibration option for monochromator wavelength and plate positioning.
11) Shaking function, time and speed are adjustable.
12) USB flash drive data export, for fast and easy data transfer.
13) Multi-user operation, data management for separate users.
