microplate readers
Microplate readers are sophisticated laboratory instruments used to measure the properties of samples in small wells of a microplate, typically with 96, 384, or 1536 wells. They analyze various characteristics, such as fluorescence, absorbance, or luminescence, which help scientists assess biological reactions or sample concentrations. By allowing multiple tests to be conducted simultaneously, microplate readers enhance efficiency and accuracy in fields like drug discovery, diagnostics, and research. They are essential tools for experiments that require high-throughput analysis, enabling researchers to gather significant amounts of data quickly.
