Absorbance
Absorbance is a well-established and widely used microplate assay format. It's ideal for applications such as ELISA, protein and nucleic acid quantification, and enzyme activity measurements.
Alpha
Alpha is a high-performance, laser-based detection technology used with AlphaScreen™ and AlphaLISA™ kits. It enables fast, no-wash assays for complex samples across a wide range of applications.
Luminescence
Luminescence measures light from chemical or biochemical reactions without external excitation. It offers high sensitivity, low background, and is ideal for reporter gene, cytotoxicity, and proliferation assays.
Fluorescence intensity
Fluorescence intensity measures light emitted from excited fluorophores. It's a widely used detection mode, ideal for DNA/protein quantitation, reporter-gene expression, and protein binding assays.
Fluorescence polarization
Fluorescence polarization detects binding events by measuring light emitted from fluorophores excited with polarized light. It's ideal for high-throughput screening of receptor-ligand binding, protein interactions, and immunoassays.
Time-resolved fluorescence
Time-resolved fluorescence (TRF) uses lanthanide labels to emit light over time, reducing background noise. It offers high sensitivity and dynamic range-ideal for low-concentration or limited-sample immunoassays.
