The EMax® Endpoint ELISA Microplate Reader from Molecular Devices, one of the pioneers in microplate detection, offers a ruggedly simple approach to dedicated endpoint assays. A staggeringSets the enduring standard for microplate analysis using filters for end-point absorbance measurements.
The EMax® Endpoint ELISA Microplate Reader from Molecular Devices, one of the pioneers in microplate detection, offers a ruggedly simple approach to dedicated endpoint assays. A staggering mean time between failure (MTBF) of 20,000 hours is achieved by 97 independent and stationary fiber optics so that the microplate remains stationary during the entire reading cycle, reducing the number of moving parts. No optical alignment needed during the lifetime of the instrument!
Through sequential, single-well illumination, 100% of the available light is directed to each well through the optical fibers to achieve linearity to higher optical densities (ODs) and optimal signal-to-noise ratios. At 5 seconds to read a 96-well endpoint assay, the EMax Microplate Reader has both the speed and performance to carry a heavy workload.
The EMax Microplate Reader is capable of reading up to two wavelengths at a time in the visible wavelength spectrum (400nm-750nm), with 4 filter choices included at time of purchase. Additional high-quality filters to supplement your assay wavelength range requirements are available directly from Molecular Devices.
EMax Microplate Readers can be operated as a stand-alone instrument and is also supplied with SoftMax® Pro Data Acquistion & Analysis Software, Molecular Devices' industry leading all-in-one data acquisition and analysis software.
Features - Solid Performance for Dedicated Absorbance
- Enabling Features
- Read up to 2 wavelengths in endpoint absorbance for 96-well plates.
- Mix samples in microplate wells by user-programmable Automix feature.
- Operate without an attached computer using the onboard microprocessor.
- Add assay flexibility with additional filters.
- Comprehensive Reader Validation

QuickSync -
The QuickSync feature pushes data to any computer within the same network and delivers data in an Excel-compatible format.
Flexible temperature control -
Simple-to-use temperature control adjusts the experiment's conditions from ambient up to 66°C.
Automatic filter identification -
Using NFC tags, the SpectraMax iD5 reader automatically detects the wavelength properties of each filter in addition to the filter slide configuration, eliminating confusion and the need for manual information entry.
Enhanced security -
The SoftMax® Touch Software secures user accounts with PIN- or NFC-protection with a lock screen option. Data is stored on the reader’s hard drive ensuring security even after transfer to a computer.
Hybrid optical system -
The SpectraMax iD5 reader provides the flexibility to set up experiments using filters, or a monochromator in 1 nm increments, or a hybrid mix of monochromator and filter-based wavelength selection.
Flash assays captured with ease -
The SpectraMax Injector System with SmartInject™ Technology features low dead volume (10 µL), overflow protection, and ensures equal mixing across the plate for high-precision experiments.
Other features and benefits include: - Personalize workflows
- • Simplify tasks
- • Reduce background noise
