BMG Labtech LUMIstar Omega Absorbance Microplate Reader

LUMIstar Omega

Dedicated microplate luminometer

The LUMIstar® Omega is BMG LABTECH's powerful dedicated luminescence microplate reader, providing highly sensitive flash and glow assay readings. This DLReady-certified microplate reader can also come equipped with Simultaneous Dual Emission for BRET applications and can be further upgraded to a multi-mode reader.

The LUMIstar Omega is a dedicated luminescence plate reader for luminescence measurements, including BRET. It provides highly sensitive readings of all luminescence applications in end-point and kinetic assays. Moreover, a built-in filter wheel and the optional Simultaneous Dual Emission detection make multiple wavelength detection and BRET applications possible.

Features

  • Flash, glow and BRET assays
  • Measurements in up to 384-well plates
  • Top and bottom reading
  • Incubation up to 45 or 65 °C
  • Simultaneous Dual Emission
  • Well scanning with up to 900 data points per well
  • Injection at point of measurement
  • Easily integrated into automated systems
