Thermo Scientific Varioskan LUX Multimode Microplate Reader

Our newest multimode microplate reader combines simplicity with top-of-the-line performance. Designed for researchers with a wide variety of needs, the Thermo Scientific Varioskan LUX Multimode Microplate Reader offers features that help save time and reduce common errors in the lab—including automated dynamic range selection, which adjusts the optimal reading range based on signal intensities; and built-in safety controls, which alert you to potential errors before they happen.

 

Features
In addition to the common features of all Microplate Reader instruments, the Varioskan LUX offers:
 
Automatic dynamic range selection
Designed to automatically select the optimal reading range based on the signal intensity in each well. This feature saves time and reduces the risk of loss of sensitivity or over-saturation of signals.
 
Integrated gas control
The ability to control O2 and CO2 levels in your microplate reader replaces the need for constant handling of plates between the incubator and reader, and helps to ensure that cells remain alive throughout the experiment.
 
Smart safety controls
Automatic safety checks designed to alert you of potential problems before they happen. This decreases the potential of a range of experimental errors, from user mistakes to power outages.
 
Flexible wavelength selection
The instrument selects the measurement wavelength using filters or monochromators, depending on which is optimal for each measurement technology.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Available measurement technology configurations
All configurations available with top or top and bottom fluorescence intensity reading; none, one, or two dispensers; and optional integrated gas modules.

  • High-Throughput Fluorescence Imaging and Analysis of Spheroids

    Introduction As cells do not grow in isolation, traditional two-dimensional (2D) cell culture monolayer models lack physiologically relevant environmental conditions and can have drastic differences in terms of their physical and biochemical features, compared to intact biological systems. Since more physiologically relevant animal studies are time consuming and expensive, there is a need for experimental models that span the gap between in vitro cell-based assays and in vivo animal studies.

  • Simplified workflow for Instant ELISA kits using the Multiskan Sky Microplate Spectrophotometer and Wellwash Versa Microplate Washer

    This application note demonstrates the benefits of using the Invitrogen™ Human TNFα Instant ELISA™ Kit with the Thermo Scientific™ Multiskan™ Sky Microplate Spectrophotomer and Wellwash™ Versa™ Microplate Washer. In addition, we show how to streamline the workflow by incorporating a preprogrammed pipetting protocol developed with the My Pipette™ Creator app and a Thermo Scientific™ E1-ClipTip™ Bluetooth™ electronic pipette.
