Fluoroskan Ascent Fluorescence CF (Cell Reading)
Fluorescence Microplate
Reader
Equipped with UV-VIS Fluorescence
for top-
and bottom- read assays SOLD

The compact Fluoroskan Ascent
CF is simplified and standardized to focus specifically on cell-based
requirements. Thus, the reader is ideal for applications such as
reporter gene and cell adhesion assays, as well as cell proliferation and cytotoxicity assays.
Proven optical design
Fluoroskan Ascent CF is designed for
bottom reading allowing closer proximity to cell samples and therefore offers
greater sensitivity. High sensitivity is also ensured by using
fiberless direct illumination optics. This produces a sharply focused
light beam, which prevents crosstalk and ensures accurate readings. A
choice of two beam diameter settings allows optimal readings of 1-96 and
384-well plates.
Diversity for fluorometric
applications
PC Software enables easy-to-use
assay setup. Reporter gene assays are one important application area,
these include green fluorescent proteins (GFP), which are widely used in
cellular and molecular biology. Bottom reading of GFP-expressing cells
ensures maximum sensitivity and allows a cover to be used for sterility.
The area scanning function of the instrument allows multiple measurement
points to be read per well. In cell-based assays, it is important to
guarantee reading of the entire well bottom, as cells do not always grow
evenly. Free selection or omission of any measurement points is
possible.
Instruments come with 1 filter pairs of choice, manual, line cord and three year warranty from
Factory Trained Engineers. New PC software must be purchased
separately.
Additional filter pairs can be purchased.
