   Product Detail


Multiskan Ascent microplate photometer offers superior photometric measurement performance for 96- and 384-well plates. This instrument reads the plate rapidly and can be connected to robotic systems for increased throughput in photometric reading.

Excellent optical performance for 96- and 384-well plates
The high-quality optical system of the Multiskan Ascent ensures excellent reproducibility, accuracy and reliable results. The unit is linear up to an outstanding 4 Abs units with 96-well plates and up to 3 Abs units with 384-well plates, eliminating the need to dilute samples and saving time in obtaining sample results. In HTS assays with 384-well plates, the Multiskan Ascent has shown excellent consistency of the signal across all wells in the plate (low intraplate variation). Additonally, no bias was observed in the IC50 as a result of curves being set up in different parts of the plate or between two separate plates (interplate variation). A good correlation was also observed in two different experiments using the same group of compounds (low interassay variation). 

Fast measurements
Multiskan Ascent provides not only extreme accuracy and precision, but also very rapid measurements: It takes only 9 seconds to measure a 96-well plate and only 20 seconds to measure a 384-well plate. 

Easy and flexible robot integration
Another feature that makes Multiskan Ascent ideal for high-throughput environments is its simple and easy robot integration. 

Optional incubator 
An optional internal incubator can be included for assays requiring temperature control. Temperature can reach up to 50°C.
