Multi-Detection Microplate Reader

BioTek Instruments announced the launch of the Synergy 2 Multi-Detection Microplate Reader. Based on the Synergy HT, the Synergy 2 is a five-mode microplate reader designed for the life science research and drug discovery markets. This new detection system will provide researchers with an unprecedented level of cost-effectiveness, and a very high level of performance in a compact and modular instrument. The Synergy 2 detection modes include Fluorescence Intensity, Fluorescence Polarization, Time-Resolved Fluorescence, Luminescence and UV-visible Absorbance. With its modular architecture, the Synergy 2 can be customized for specific applications, making it an extremely cost-effective reader. The Synergy 2 runs all common microplate applications such as ELISA assays, 260 nm DNA quantification, reporter gene assays, cytotoxicity and cell proliferation assays, protein and nucleic acid quantification, kinetic enzyme assays, as well as ion channel assays, FRET and TR-FRET assays, binding assays and much more.
