| Description | The ultimate microplate reader for HTS applications
The PHERAstar® FSX reader performs all leading non-isotopic detection technologies with ease and speed. Unmatched sensitivity and speed in Fluorescence Intensity (FI) and Fluorescence Polarization (FP) makes the PHERAstar® FSX the most The ultimate microplate reader for HTS applications
The PHERAstar® FSX reader performs all leading non-isotopic detection technologies with ease and speed. Unmatched sensitivity and speed in Fluorescence Intensity (FI) and Fluorescence Polarization (FP) makes the PHERAstar® FSX the most sensitive reader today. Moreover, the reader offers an ultrahigh dynamic range in Luminescence enabling a higher flexibility and more precise measurement results.
Simultaneous Dual Emission detection for Alpha Technology
The PHERAstar® FSX has Simultaneous Dual Emission detection for AlphaPlex™ increasing throughput significantly by cutting read times in a half.
Next generation TRF Laser
To ensure best performance for any assay the PHERAstar® FSX comes with the next generation laser for TRF/TR-FRET. The new TRF laser accomplishes up to 60 flashes per second which increase throughput and precision of measurement in all plate formats.
For HTS automation purposes, the PHERAstar® FSX offers improved robotic integration capabilities, multi-user control and MARS data analysis software with included digital signature and FDA 21 CFR part 11 compliance, and can be equipped with BMG LABTECH's Stacker

Additional outstanding features of the LUMIstar Omega include top and bottom reading, The LUMIstar Omega is a compact and modular DLReadyTM certified microplate luminescence reader that is designed for the widest possible range of applications based on luminescence labels including BRET assays. Additional outstanding features of the LUMIstar Omega include top and bottom reading, incubation up to 45°C or 65°C, up to two reagent injectors, and well-established Reader Control and powerful MARS Data Analysis Software. For BRET applications, even Simultaneous Dual Emission detection is possible. For assays that require special atmospheric conditions, the optional Atmospheric Control Unit (ACU) offers fully regulated control of O2 and CO2 within the microplate reader. The microprocessor controlled ACU independently regulates CO2 (0% - 20%) and O2 (1% - 19%) so that any combination can be programmed into the unit making it unnecessary to change gas cylinders or piped gas supplies to reproduce certain physiological conditions needed for cell-based assays.
Features - Microplate reader for luminescence
- Measurement at up to eight distinctive wavelengths
- BRET, optional with Simultaneous Dual Emission Detection
- Up to two reagent injectors
- Reader Control and comprehensive MARS Data Analysis Software
- Upgradeable to FLUOstar Omega and POLARstar Omega with multiple detection modes and UV/Vis spectrometer
- And much more....

Read More | The SPECTROstar Omega is an absorbance microplate reader capable of recording both a photometric spectrum (220-1000 nm) down to a resolution of 1 nm and absorbance values at fixed user-defined wavelengths. Similar to a monochromator, but much faster, the spectrometer allows you to capture the UV/VisThe SPECTROstar Omega is an absorbance microplate reader capable of recording both a photometric spectrum (220-1000 nm) down to a resolution of 1 nm and absorbance values at fixed user-defined wavelengths. Similar to a monochromator, but much faster, the spectrometer allows you to capture the UV/Vis spectrum of a sample within one second per well - no scanning needed. The speed of the spectrometer and the easy work-up in the software provide users with unmatched flexibility that can be used to optimize absorbance settings for all your experiments.
Spectra can be captured in less than 1 second per well. Combined with precise temperature control, onboard injection, shaking, high reproducibility and a wide dynamic range, the SPECTROstar Omega provides users with unmatched flexibility and sensitivity to perform any absorbance based assay needed.
Due to the absolutely modular concept of the SPECTROstar Omega, it is entirely upgradeable to a multidetection microplate reader at any time. Whenever the need for fluorescence and luminescence based experiments arrives, the SPECTROstar Omega can be upgraded to a FLUOstar Omega or even to the POLARstar Omega with Simultaneous Dual Emission and Fluorescence Polarization detection mode. The optional Atmospheric Control Unit (ACU) also offers exceptional gas control features. The microprocessor controlled ACU fully regulates O2 and CO2 within the microplate reader allowing you to select the concentrations that match your required physiological conditions. As the ACU controls CO2 (0 - 20%) and O2 (1 - 19%) independently, it is unnecessary to change gas cylinders or piped gas supplies to adapt to different atmospheric conditions.
