Great instrument, multiple tasks done on one bench, our labs just love it.

 

Average Rating 4.3

Application Area:

Cell biology, protein biochemistry, molrcular biology

We are very much appreciative of the companies Agilent/BioTek for bringing in a very helpful price for us to purchase this great instrument. Our lab uses this instrument Cytation 7 on a daily basis, mostly for nanodrop quantification of DNA/RNA AMOUNTS, OR FOR PROTEIN ESTIMATION BY BCA. We also use it often for microscopy. It is one piece of equipment for doing multiple tasks, and we just love it.

Fantastic piece of equipment that does it all!

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Drug discovery + development

Super easy and intuitive to use, the Cytation 7 is a machine that does it all! Our lab uses it for fluorescence microscopy, cell counting, RNA/DNA quality assessment and its multi-modal plate reading. Value for money is excellent since it can replace many separate pieces of equipment. The after sales care is also phenomenal, with the BioTek representatives always happy and quick to help with any trouble shooting. The only possible downside is the cost of yearly calibration, which can easily be justified by the vast number of functions.
