Modular Detection Platform

The PARADIGM modular detection platform features a selection of cartridges that can be interchanged in less than five minutes to meet different assay needs, making this a user-upgradable and -configurable multi-mode reader. The high-throughput detector reads on the fly, in formats from six to 1,536 wells. Eight different cartridges are available, based on detection modes including fluorescence polarization, time-resolved fluorescence, dual-label fluorescence (including FRET) and luminescence. A monochromator-based absorbance cartridge is also offered. System software comes with a portfolio of generic protocol templates for the most common detection measurements to streamline user start-up and operation. Assay protocols for third-party chemistry kits are also included, allowing the user to simply enter the number of samples and read the plate.
