PHERAstar FSplate reader
BMG LABTECH launches the HTS plate reader, the PHERAstar FS. It is based on the PHERAstar Plus and incorporates the following new features: Tandem Technology, which uses highly sensitive, filter-based detection in all modes and an ultra-fast UV/Vis Spectrometer; on-board reagent injectors for precise kinetic measurements; advanced bottom reading for cell-based assays; and a dedicated UV laser for all time-resolved fluorescence (TR-FRET)–based assays. According to the company, the PHERAstar FS performs all of the leading non-radioactive detection technologies, including fluorescence intensity, fluorescence polarization, TR-FRET, laser-based AlphaScreen, luminescence/ BRET, and UV/Vis full spectrum absorbance. The reader achieves advanced performance in all reading modes, including HTRF/TR-FRET, through a lens-based optical system. This system is combined with a unique technology that ensures the optimal use of different mode-specific PMTs and excitation sources. In addition, BMG LABTECH readers are the only ones on the market that can capture TR-FRET decay curves in real-time for assay optimization.
