Applications specialist Catherine Wark on PHERAstar FSX HTS Multimode Plate Reader by BMG LabTechPresentation of PHERAstar FSX by Catherine WarkApplications specialist Catherine Wark discusses applications and highlights the addition of Simultaneous Dual Emission on the PHERAstar FSX HTS Multimode Plate Reader by BMG LabTech
Easy-to-configure optic modules detected by the instrument via a barcode contain all the filters needed to run a specific assay in one click
Simultaneous Dual Emission
Enables measurement of two emitted wavelengths at the same time reducing read times and increasing throughput ideal for multiplex Alpha assays
Decay Curve Monitoring (DCM)
DCM optimizes and fine-tunes assays using a TR-FRET dedicated photon counting detection system that improves signal detection and reduces background noise
