The SpectraMax® M3 Multi-Mode Microplate Reader features dual monochromatic optics to allow the widest range of applications to be utilized for bioresearch procedures, without the need to change filters.
- Dual monochromatic optics
- Wide range of applications
- Top or bottom read modes
The SpectraMax® M3 Multi-Mode Microplate Reader provides three modes of detection in one platform
The SpectraMax® M3 Microplate Reader is the standard for UV/visible multi-mode reader absorbance, providing ultrafast, full spectral range detection for cuvettes and 6-, 12-, 24-, 48-, 96-, and 384-well microplates. For fluorescence intensity assays, users can select from top- or bottom-read modes for improved sensitivity in solution and cell-based assays. Assays can be better optimized by scanning across a range of wavelengths in increments as small as 1nm. Up to 4 wavelength pairs can be read in one protocol for endpoint and kinetic measurements, allowing for fast setup of FRET assays. For luminescence, the SpectraMax® M3 Microplate Reader utilizes a dedicated luminescence photomultiplier tube (PMT), providing the maximum signal and lowest background possible for glow luminescence reporter gene assays.
If application requirements change, the SpectraMax® M3 Microplate Reader can be upgraded with more detection options, including time-resolved fluorescence, fluorescence polarization, and HTRF certified detection, making it equivalent to the SpectraMax® M4 Microplate Reader, SpectraMax® M5 Microplate Reader, or the SpectraMax® M5e Microplate Reader. The SpectraMax® M3 Microplate Reader is supplied with SoftMax® Pro Data Acquisition and Analysis Software, Molecular Devices' industry leading all-in-one software. Among the various ready-to-read protocols, users will find pre-written SpectraDrop™ Plate protocols enabling Micro Volume applications measurement. Additionally, the SpectraMax® M3 Microplate Reader can be seamlessly integrated with the StakMax® Microplate Handling Stacker through SoftMax® Pro Data Acquisition and Analysis Software.
They are UV-Visible Absorbance (Abs), Fluorescence Intensity (FI), and Glow Luminescence (Lumi).
