Plate Readers

Plate readers are specialized devices used in laboratories to analyze samples arranged in multi-well plates, commonly used in scientific experiments. They work by shining light onto the samples and measuring how much light is absorbed or emitted, which helps determine the presence and quantity of specific substances, like proteins or cells. This technology is essential in fields such as biology and medicine for tasks like drug testing and disease detection, allowing researchers to process many samples quickly and accurately. Plate readers enhance efficiency and data collection in experiments, facilitating advances in science and healthcare.
