Description
Molecular Devices SpectraMax i3x is a multi-mode microplate reader. It’s designed to perform various assays and measurements in a research setting, often used in drug discovery, bioassays, and other biochemical and cellular research.
SpectraMax i3x Multi-Mode Microplate Reader measures absorbance, fluorescence and luminescence. Its dual light sources, a xenon lamp and LEDs, illuminates samples with incomparable signal strength and superior sensitivity. The cooled PMT detector allows high sensitivity in a wide dynamic range, even in extremely low light.
Key features of the SpectraMax i3x may include:
- Modularity: The SpectraMax i3x platform allows for easy expansion. This means that users can add additional detection modes (e.g., western blot, imaging) as their needs grow, without the need for an entirely new instrument.
- Multi-Mode Detection: The system is capable of absorbance, fluorescence, and luminescence readings, providing versatility for various assay requirements.
- MiniMax Imaging Cytometer: Some configurations include an imaging cytometer option, enabling cellular imaging and analysis directly on the plate reader.
- SoftMax Pro Software: This software provides an integrated solution for data acquisition and analysis. Its user-friendly interface ensures researchers can manage their assays efficiently.
- Touchscreen Interface: A built-in interface offers easy-to-use, protocol-driven operation, which helps to reduce errors and streamline workflows.
- Integrated Tool Stack: The system often comes with tools for assay optimization, including spectral scanning, and temperature control for kinetic assays.
Molecular Devices is known for producing reliable and high-quality laboratory equipment, and the SpectraMax i3x is no exception“SpectraMax plate reader is very easy to use, with detection of absorbance, fluorescence, luminescence, etc.. For prep samples treated with the ELISA kit reagents, it is fast and user friendly. The equipment has integrated software that’s also very easy to use, flexible settings and the ability to create protocols and templates for specific assay parameters.” Ana Laura Castillo Perez – Freeline Therapeutics
Two fluorescence detection channels allow the instrument to analyze cell viability or cell toxicity assays, including ratiometric assays like live-dead and transfection efficiency. The SpectraMax i3x multi-functional detection platform launched by Molecular Devices can meet the multi-functional detection system with unlimited possible applications as your future needs change. The possibility of user upgrading the system with an application cartridge and an imaging cytometer makes this device the most flexible microplate reader on the market.
