Product Description
The POLARstar OPTIMA is a fully automated microplate based multi-detection reader which incorporates five different measurement principles:
  • Fluorescence Polarization
  • Fluorescence Intensity
  • Time-Resolved Fluorescence
  • High-Performance Luminescence (flash and glow)
  • Absorbance
It is designed for the widest possible range of non-radioactive labeled applications:
  • Ca2+ Measurements (e.g. Ca2+Flux with Fura-2 or Indo-1)
  • Molecular Interactions
  • Enzyme Activity
  • Cell Toxicity, Proliferation and Viability
  • ATP Quantification
  • Immunoassays
By integrating a high intensity xenon flash lamp and liquid light guide technology, the POLARstar OPTIMA can cover the wavelength range from 240 to 740 nm (fluorescence polarization from 350 to 740 nm). The POLARstar OPTIMA can read all plate formats from 6- up to 384-well plates in all 5 measurement modes and 1536-well plate reading is possible in both fluorescence and time-resolved mode. The versatile optical system allows instant switching from top to bottom reading and the dual-channel detection system can be used for fluorescence polarization as well as dual emission wavelength measurements (ratiometric fluorophores or FRET assays).
