The SpectraMax M2 is a dual-monochromator, multi-detection microplate reader with a dual-mode cuvette port and 96 or 384 microplate reading capability. Detection modalities include absorbance (UV-Vis Abs) and fluorescence intensity (FI) and have optical performance comparable to a top-of-the-line dedicated spectrofluorometer or spectrophotometer. Endpoint, kinetic, spectrum and area-well scanning read types and PathCheck allow homogeneous and heterogeneous microplate assays to be performed in this flexible system. The FI and Abs microplate reader with built-in cuvette port allows easy conversion and optimization of very-low-throughput assays into medium-high-throughput microplate assays.

The SpectraMax M2 allows faster, more precise results and reagent savings. In addition, combined absorbance and fluorescence intensity assays can be run by issuing a single read command. Within endpoint and kinetic measurement protocols, up to four wavelength pairs can be read at a time, allowing for improved efficiency. Key Features: dual mode cuvette port, robotics compatible, multilabel, dual monochromators, and PathCheck.

Applications include: DNA, RNA, and protein quantitation and purity; PicoGreen, NanoOrange, and Bradford; ELISAs and enzyme kinetics; drug dissolution profiles; live or dead viability or cytotoxicity assays; Caspase-3 and protease assays; cAMP assays using CatchPoint Assay Kits; and low volume applications.


All of our equipment is fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped.
