3.5 Multi-wavelength Measurements
Performing a multi-wavelength measurement on Galapagos:
The Multiple wavelength application allows users to measure absorbance at different
wavelengths. Mathematical manipulations of this data can often reveal information about the
sample's composition or purity.
1.
To perform a multi-wavelength
measurements
click
‘Multiple
Wavelength’ from the drop down
menu.
2.
The menu is adjusted to allow users
to select up to 4 wavelengths for
measurement. Each wavelength
must be different. For the EZ Read
800 Plus ELISA, users can input
wavelengths of 405, 450, 492 and
620nm. For the EZ Read Research
model, users can choose four
wavelengths from 405, 450, 492,
562, 595 and 620nm. Click ‘Start’ to
begin the measurement.
