Description
The Accuris™ MR9600-T SmartReader™ 96 Microplate Absorbance Reader with Incubation is a cost-effective, filter-based plate reader for laboratories that routinely measure absorbance or concentration in 96-well plates — ideal for ELISA, protein assays and other colorimetric tests. A 7-inch color touch screen with intuitive graphical software lets it run as a fully stand-alone instrument, so no computer or additional software is required.
The reader ships with four popular filters — 405, 450, 492 and 630 nm — and 26 additional filters are available separately to cover the full 340 to 750 nm range. The integrated filter wheel holds up to eight filters at once, and up to two filters can be used for dual-wavelength measurements of the same plate. Kinetic calculations are performed by programming multiple readings, and an 8-channel vertical optical path reads a full 96-well plate in under six seconds. A built-in shaker offers slow, medium and fast mixing modes.
The plate-layout screen shows a graphical 96-well map where each well can be labeled as a standard, unknown sample, blank, QC control, negative or positive control, or empty. Results, interpretations, calculated analysis and curve fitting appear on screen immediately after each read. Data are saved to a USB flash drive as universal .csv files, and USB ports also connect a PC, mouse or printer (the optional MR9600-TP thermal printer and MR9600-PC software are sold separately). The MR9600-T adds precise temperature control for plate incubation during processing, from 5°C above ambient up to 50°C.
