SmartReader™ 96 Absorbance Plate Reader – Accuris Instruments
The Accuris SmartReader™ 96 is a standalone microplate absorbance reader designed for efficient and precise measurements in 96-well plates, featuring a user-friendly 7-inch color touch screen and integrated software.
SmartReader™ 96 Absorbance Plate Reader
The Accuris SmartReader™ 96 Absorbance Plate Reader (models MR9600 and MR9600-T) is an essential instrument for laboratories performing routine concentration or absorbance measurements in 96-well plates. Its intuitive design and advanced features streamline workflows and enhance data accuracy.
The SmartReader 96 comes complete with 4 popular filters: 405,450,492,630nm and twenty six additional filters are available separately to cover a full range from 340 to 750nm. The integrated filter wheel allows up to 8 filters to be loaded at once, and filters can be selected during programming
The SmartReader 96 is a convenient stand alone reader, all software and the programing system is incorporated into the electronics. However, a convenient USB port on the side allows quick and easy saving of data files to a USB drive, and the universal .csv files can then be shared or transferred to a computer for storage or further processing. A data port can be used for connecting a computer or basic printer.
Main features:
☑️User-Friendly Interface: Equipped with a 7-inch color touch screen (800 x 480 pixels) and integrated software, the SmartReader™ 96 offers an intuitive graphical interface for standalone operation, eliminating the need for an external computer.
☑️Versatile Wavelength Range: The filter-based system covers wavelengths from 340 to 750 nm, with four standard filters included (405, 450, 492, and 630 nm). An additional 26 filters are available separately, allowing customization for various applications.
☑️Efficient Optical System: Featuring an 8-channel vertical optical path with zero dispersion, the reader ensures rapid and accurate measurements across all wells.
☑️Integrated Plate Shaker: The built-in multi-speed plate shaker offers three modes—slow (3.5 Hz), medium (4.7 Hz), and fast (7.0 Hz)—to facilitate thorough mixing of samples.
☑️Temperature Control (Model MR9600-T): This model includes precise temperature control, maintaining incubation from ambient +5°C up to 50°C, ideal for temperature-sensitive assays.
☑️Comprehensive Data Management: With storage capacity for 200 programs and 100,000 test records, data management is streamlined. USB ports support connections to PCs, printers, mice, and flash drives for seamless data transfer.
Plate Layout Interface
The plate layout interface allows for quick and intuitive set up of a plate’s well contents. The display shows a graphical representation of the 96 well plate, and the user can label each well as required for: “known standard”, “unknown sample”, “blank well”, “QC control well”, “negative control”, “positive control”, or “empty”. The interface allows highlighting and labeling multiple wells to save time.
Measurement data is available immediately on the screen after a reading, as well as interpretations, calculated analysis and curve fittings.
