Microplate reader SpectraMax Paradigm - Perfect Condition

SpectraMax® Paradigm®: Multi-Mode Microplate Reader for Precise and Flexible Analysis

The SpectraMax® Paradigm® is a multi-mode microplate reader designed to meet the demands of modern research laboratories. This versatile device can perform a variety of measurements, including absorbance, fluorescence, luminescence, and polarized fluorescence, while offering exceptional flexibility thanks to its modular detector cartridges.

The SpectraMax® Paradigm® is distinguished by its ability to automatically optimize the Z-height, improving the dynamic range and sensitivity of assays. This feature allows the lens to be adjusted to accommodate small volumes or varying well geometries, ensuring accurate and reliable results. In addition, the detector cartridge system allows new reading modes to be added in minutes without requiring a service visit, providing adaptability for future applications.

With SoftMax® Pro software, users can perform multiple calculations on a single dataset, compare multiple experiments side-by-side, and adjust reduction parameters while collecting data in real time. This software integration enables in-depth data analysis, including EC50 and Z-factor analysis to assess assay quality, as well as visualization of results with over 21 regression curve options.

The SpectraMax® Paradigm® is compatible with a wide range of plate types, from 6 to 1536 wells, and offers temperature control from ambient +4°C to 45°C. It also features linear and orbital shaking capabilities, as well as automation capabilities for easy integration into laboratory workflows.

The SpectraMax® Paradigm® is an indispensable tool for laboratories requiring precise and flexible analysis, offering a comprehensive range of features to meet the evolving needs of scientific research.
