11 Sept 2008

Product news

At Elrig/SBS, Drug discovery this Autumn BMG LABTECH will be presenting their latest range of innovative next generation microplate readers including:

PHERAstar Plus – The Flagship for High Throughput Screening with unsurpassed speed and sensitivity in all read modes including Fluorescence Intensity – FRET, Fluorescence Polarisation, Time Resolved Fluorescence, Luminescence and Absorbance.

OMEGA - The first microplate reader range with Tandem Technology combining high-speed UV/Vis Spectrometer based absorbance and ultra sensitive filter based detection in all modes.

NEPHELOstar - The only Laser Based Microplate Nephelometer for automated drug solubility screening, offers a rapid method for checking drug solubility, bacterial and fungal growth, quantification of macromolecules, formation of immunocomplexes, quality control, and more.

NOVOstar – The unique multifunction reader available with advanced liquid handling capabilities to tackle your most demanding assay needs.

CO2 GAS VENT – Ideal for automated cell growth, cell migration/invasion and culture studies over long periods of time without intervention.

We also invite you to meet our Applications Specialists and find out how you can optimise assays such as HTRF®, Transcreener® FP, Predictor™ hERG FP, Lanthascreen™, AlphaScreen® as well as many other applications.

Cell / Tissue CultureCell culture or tissue culture is used to study the biology of cells or tissues and to isolate cellular products in an environment which can be manipulated and well defined. Accurately control your culture environment with bioreactors or culture incubators, bind your cells to a surface or together with an extracellular matrix. Distinguish cell types with differential media or proliferate cells with certain characteristics using selective media. Enrich your media with supplements such as growth factors, sera and vitamins.

Use HTS readers and integrated assay preparation / analysis workstations to screen your compounds. Identify active compounds against various HTS libraries, including membranes, proteins and peptides and HTS cell lines.

Microplate readers are generally distinguished by their mode of detection. Types include absorbance, luminescence, fluorescence intensity, fluorescence polarization, TRF / FRET and multimode microplate readers. Microplate readers deliver a high throughput of samples by reading multiple wells simultaneously, with the 96-well format the most commonly used. As a result, microplate readers are often used in the drug discovery, bioassays, research and pharmaceutical industries for screening applications. Microplate loading can also be automated, with robotic microplate stackers to increase throughput.

The robotic, liquid handling arms can dispense from single channel to 3456 multichannel as well as operate nanoliter dispensing, enabling high throughput of samples.
