Absorbance

Absorbance refers to the ability of a substance to absorb light of a specific wavelength.

Learn More

Alpha-Detection

AlphaScreen is a bead-based assay technology used to study biomolecular interactions in a microplate format.

Learn More

Filtered Luminescence

Filters can be used to modulate the luminescence emanating from the sample.

Learn More

Flash Luminescence

Flash luminescence is the result of a chemical or biochemical reaction, triggered by a rapid injection of a catalyst into the microplate well immediately before detection.

Learn More

Fluorescence Intensity

Fluorescence intensity detection has a much broader range of applications than absorbance detection.

Learn More

Fluorescence Polarization

Fluorescence polarization (FP) measurements are made using an optical system that includes polarizing filters in the light path.

Learn More

Glow Luminescence

Luminescence is the result of a chemical or biochemical reaction.

Learn More

Time-Resolved Fluorescence

Time-resolved fluorescence (TRF) measurement is similar to fluorescence intensity (FI) measurement.

Learn More

TR-FRET

Time-resolved fluorescence energy transfer (TR-FRET) works on the principles that when suitable pairs of fluorophores are in close proximity of one another, excitation of a lanthanide donor fluorophore results in energy transfer to an acceptor fluorophore.

4-Zone Incubation and Condensation Control

Many Agilent single and multi-mode microplate readers include an incubation function for temperature sensitive applications, such as kinetic assays.

Hybrid Technology

At one time, scientists had to make an important decision when purchasing a multidetection microplate reader: Do I need filter-based or monochromator-based optical system? With the Agilent BioTek patented Hybrid Technology, there is no need to choose.

Peltier Cooling Module

The Peltier cooling module for the Agilent BioTek Cytation 7, 5, and 1 cell imaging multimode readers helps maintain temperature stability inside the reading chamber. The temperature is stable regardless of changes in ambient (room) temperature and heat produced by electro-mechanical operations within the reader.

Variable Bandwidth Monochromators

Many multimode microplate readers use monochromator-based optics for fluorescence intensity measurements, allowing great flexibility to use multiple fluorescent dyes and stains.
