ELx808 Absorbance Microplate Reader
BioTek’s ELx808 is an eight-channel reader-assay system. The reader can serve as a
standalone system, or can be controlled via BioTek’s Gen5 software.
Designed to automatically perform endpoint and kinetic analysis, the reader can measure
the optical density of solutions in 96-well microplates between 380 nm and 900 nm. The
UV option measures down to 340 nm.
The reader features superior optical specifications, with an extended dynamic range of up
to 4.000 absorbance units.
The instrument’s onboard processor, 2-line x 24-character LCD screen, and membrane
keys allow easy definition and management of assay protocols, templates, formulas, and
data. Results can be output in a printed report format, or exported for use in a variety of
ELISA-based data manipulation applications.
Reader Variations
