    Spectra Viewer

    The Spectra Viewer tool helps you visualize the spectral compatibility of fluorophores and fluorescent labelled probes so you can determine what filters are best for detection. Choose the appropriate Revvity multimode plate reader from the Select Machine drop-down menu. After selection, filters for the chosen instrument will be displayed automatically.
