1. Overview
Intended Use Statement
The
junior
is a compact luminometer which is suitable for
measuring all types of ”glow” luminescence, i.e., bio- and
chemiluminescent reactions that emit a constant light output
over a given period of time. The
junior
may be used for the
following purposes:
Biomedical research
Hygiene monitoring
Process control in biotech
Environmental monitoring of water quality
Common applications are:
Reporter gene assays
Enzyme activity studies
ATP measurements, including detection of microbial
contamination
Toxicity and mutageneity of water samples
The junior must not be used for in vitro diagnostics.
The
junior
is designed for
rapid standard measurements
of
single samples. Measurement results are given in RLUs
(Relative Light Units). These results can be classified in
3 categories by user-definition of two threshold values.
The advantages of the
junior
in a single glance:
High accuracy of measurement with easy readout
Simple operation of standard applications
Storage of different measurement protocols
Automatic storing of the last 2000 measurements,
comprising the date, time, site identification number and
test number
Display of stored results
Transfer of (selected) results to a PC
Deletion of measured results
Operation using mains supply or rechargeable batteries
