20 January 2011: Biochrom Ltd, Cambridge, UK: Biochrom Ltd announces further functionality in its microplate readers that now enable users of Abcam’s popular ELISA assays to download pre-programmed method definitions. Instead of loading methods manually, users can automatically pre-program the microplate reader with plate setup, standard curve, and analysis software for the Abcam ELISA assays. This saves time and helps reduce the chance of errors.

These rapid multi-channel instruments have on-board measurement and data analysis software and are ideal for labs requiring simple, rapid reading of microplates.
