Fluorescence reader from 
FLUOstar OMEGA
Multi-Detection Microplate Readers with UV/Vis Spectrometer
FLUOstar OMEGA multifunctional microplate reader built around BMG LABTECH's unique Tandem Technology.
FLUOstar OMEGA uses an ultra-fast CCD-array detector for absorbance and filter based detection of other methods.
- UV/Vis Absorbance measures the whole spectrum or individual wavelengths
- Fluorescence intensity- including FRET
- Time-Resolved Fluorescence- including DELFIA®
- TR-FRET include HTRF®och LanthaScreenTM
- AlphaScreen®/AlphaLISA®
- High-Performance Luminescence (flash and glow) - including BRET
BMG Labtech has developed a special measuring method and an optical system to provide the multi-function reader with the possibility to read AlphaScreen®/AlphaLISA® with specifications to compete with other HTS plate reader. You obtain great AlphaScreen®/AlphaLISA® results on a microplate reader at a middle price range with FLUOstar OMEGA.
Advanced Performance TRF is part of Omega's optional Advanced Assay Technology Package. It uses a special optical measuring head that includes a method specific dichroic mirror. Combined with the high-intensity pulsed xenon lamp, optimized filters and adjustable gain, is FLUOstar OMEGA TRF measurement head the most competetive on the market.
FLUOstar OMEGA is a development of the popular FLUOstar OPTIMA microplate reader and has utilized and improved both the hardware and software.
