LMR 340M

is a MONOCHROMATOR BASED Microplate Reader that incorporates a Fastie-Ebert monochromator with a holographic grating for easy wavelength selection without the need for filters. Any wavelength from 340 to 800 nm can be selected. The Reader is also very flexible when it comes to plate formats, taking advantage of the fact that this is a single channel instrument without the restrictions imposed by multi-channel systems. There can be total confi dence in the results too, since the LMR 340M calibrates and checks itself regularly and automatically..

Features
  • Monochromator instrument for total wavelength flexibility without the needs for filters
  • Full wavelength scan of a single well in less than 5 seconds
  • Built-in wavelength calibration
  • Can measure any plate format from 12 to 96, or 96 and 384 wells (HD version)
  • Fast reading, 20 seconds only for a 96 well plate
  • Low profile, self-centring plate carrier and front loading allows easy integration into automated systems

LMR SA

is a Stand Alone Microplate Reader that combines a large graphics display with an easy to use, yet powerful on-board software, making it ideal for use in any laboratory performing ELISA and other microplate assays. It can perform single- and dual wavelength endpoint and kinetics measurements.

Features Benefits
  • Digital light control system:
  • No re-adjustment during lifetime
  • Extra long-time stability
  • Self check and self-calibration before each measurement
  • Digital technology reduces component count and increases MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures)
  • 130 methods and 100 results can be stored
  • Sufficient for demanding laboratories.
  • Extensive range of built-in printer drivers
  • Compatibility with most printers
  • Windows® based PC-simulation program
  • Method definition, method up - and download, saving of methods and results on PC
  • QC-plate and QC-program
  • User can perform regular validation
  • Built with industrial grade components
  • Lasts for many years even under very high use
