Microplate luminometer centro LB 963

The Centro is a high-performance, easy-to-use and versatile microplate luminometer for both, glow and flash luminescence assays. The optimized optical system of the instrument provides lowest background and negligible crosstalk (10-6). It can be equipped with up to 3 injectors. The Centro XS version of the system has been built on the basis of the successful Centro, and shares with it its reliability and robustness, but has been optimized to increase its sensitivity even further: the Centro XS is the most sensitive microplate luminometer available and reliably measures less than 1.8 amol ATP per well. This makes the Centro XS the ideal partner for applications such as determination of cell viability, e.g. in tumour chemosensitivity assay, cell proliferation, antibiotic susceptibility testing or pathogen detection. The Centro supports all basic luminescence technologies including: Flash-type Luminescence Glow-type Luminescence Cellular Luminescence Bio-Luminescence Chemi-Luminescence Sensitive and reliable Thanks to a stringent selection of photomultipliers working in photon counting mode and more than 40 years of experience building luminometers, the Centro provides highly sensitive luminescence detection: less than 5 amol ATP/well (25 fM) can be detected reliably. In the Centro XS, optics have been optimized to increase its sensitivity even further: below 1.8 amol ATP/well (9 fM).
