Thermo Fisher, VA000010C, Varioskan™ ALF Multimode Microplate Reader

Varioskan™ ALF Multimode Microplate Reader The Thermo Scientific Varioskan ALF Multimode Microplate Reader is a versatile, entry level reader for most common absorbance, turbidimetric, fluorescence, and luminescence microplate assays. Its photometric optical design is based on a xenon flash lamp and monochromator, enabling continuous wavelength selection from UV through visible range up to 1000 nm. The broad wavelength range enables many common assays, including nucleic acid and protein quantification, bacterial growth curves, ELISA, and cell viability. Absorbance Range: 200 to 1000 nm
