Tecan GENios Pro Multifunction Microplate Reader System

Tecan Genios Pro Multifunction Microplate Reader:
The Tecan Genios Pro is a fully automatic, computer controlled Fluorescence. Luminescence and Absorbance instrument for measuring samples in a microplate. The instrument fulfills the requirements for numerous fluorescence, absorbance and luminescence applications in research and routine investigations.

The filters are arranged in filter slides; four excitation filters and four emission filters respectively can be installed in the slides. Handles 6, 24, 96 and 384 well plates. Spectral range 360-700nm for fluorescence. 230-900nm absorbance spectral range. Sensitivity ≤1.5 picogram fluorescein on each well or ≤4 fmol well. The emission signal is measured by a highly sensitive PMT. Different detection techniques with one instrument change of measurement directions (top / bottom) by PC software. Thermal incubation at +5º C to + 40º C.

Dual optical channels allow measurements from above or below the plate by mouse-click. Light to and from the samples is focused by a lens and high quality filters are easily accessible from the front of the instrument. Each filter slide can hold up to four filters.
Orbital shaking and temperature control are standard.
