PC or Mac, includes incubator, Microplate Manager 6 software (#168-9520), USB2 cable
Review Date: 3 Jun 2011 | Bio-Rad
The xMark™ microplate absorbance spectrophotometer has a monochromator design with a spectral range of 200–1,000 nm. The spectrophotometer can read standard 6- to 1,536-well microplates and custom plates. The instrument has a built-in incubator with continuous temperature display and a built-in shaker with variable mixing speed and linear or orbital mixing mode. Using the included Microplate Manager® software (PC or Mac), the xMark spectrophotometer can perform a range of end-point and kinetic applications as well as extensive data analysis.
Benefits
- Detection, analysis, and quantitation of substances with absorbance spectra in the UV range (DNA) to infrared range (water)
- No restrictions on sample type, volume, or throughput
- Accommodation of validation protocols including installation qualification and operational qualification (IQ/OQ)
The xMark spectrophotometer reports with the Checkmark™ reader performance verification kit. An adaptor is available for use with Terasaki plates.
