Imagine pipetting hundreds of samples daily, only to question the consistency of your results or face contamination scares.
A microplate reader is an essential instrument in modern laboratories, widely used in biology, chemistry, and pharmaceutical research. Its primary function is to detect and quantify biological, chemical, or physical events in samples placed in microtiter plates. These plates typically have 96, 384, or even 1536 wells, enabling high-throughput screening and efficient analysis.
Tired of wasting precious lab time greasing seals, chasing vacuum leaks, or buying overpriced reagent bottles?
Ever diluted a high-concentration sample only to lose critical data accuracy? Or struggled with OD values maxing out at 3.0A while your assays demand higher precision? You’re not alone.
For countless labs performing routine diagnostics, food safety monitoring, or environmental analysis, the ELISA plate reader represents both an indispensable tool and a painful financial paradox.
Does this sound familiar? You need precise nucleic acid quantification for your crucial experiment, but your microvolume spectrophotometer only offers OD600 in cuvette mode.
