SPECTROstar Omega Absorbance Plate Reader

Absorbance plate reader with ultrafast UV/vis spectrometer
The SPECTROstar® Omega is a dedicated absorbance microplate reader that can capture a full absorbance spectrum (220 - 1000 nm) in less than 1 second per well – no scanning needed.

This upgradeable reader offers the highest flexibility for optimizing settings for all absorbance-based assays. The LVis Plate compatibility allows for low-volume sample measurements.

  • Detection Modes: UV/vis absorbance spectra
  • Measurement Modes: Endpoint and kinetic - Spectral scanning (absorbance) - Well scanning
  • Microplate Formats : 6 to 1536-well plates, user-definable - LVis Plate with 16 low volume microspots (2 μL)
  • Microplate Carrier: Robot compatible
  • Light Sources: High energy xenon flash lamp
  • Detectors: CCD Spectrometer
  • Wavelength Selection: UV/Vis Absorbance Spectrometer - Full spectra or 8 distinct wavelengths in < 1 sec / well
  • Spectral Range: Spectrometer - 220 - 1000 nm
  • Sensitivity
    • Full spectrum captured in < 1 s/well
    • Selectable spectral resolution: 1 nm, 2 nm, 5 nm, 10 nm
    • OD range: 0 to 4 OD
    • Accuracy: < 1% at 2 OD
    • Precision: < 0.5% at 1 OD and < 0.8% at 2 OD
    • Reproducibility: ±0.005 OD for 0 - 2 OD range
  • Read Times: Full spectrum from 220 to 1000 nm in less than 1 sec/well
  • Reagent Injection
  • Up to 2 built-in reagent injectors
  • Injection at measurement position (6 to 384-well)
  • Individual injection volumes for each well (3 to 500 µL)
  • Variable injection speed up to 420 µL / s
  • Up to four injection events per well
  • Reagent back flushing
  • Shaking: Linear, orbital, and double-orbital with user-definable time and speed
  • Purge Gas Vent: System to inject an atmosphere or to pull a vacuum into the reader
  • Incubation: +4 °C above ambient up to 45 °C or 65 °C
  • The upper heating plate of the incubation chamber operates at 0.5 °C more than the lower plate. This prevents condensation build-up on the lid or sealer.
  • Software: Multi-user Reader Control and MARS Data Analysis Software included - FDA 21 CFR Part 11 compliant
  • Dimensions: Width: 44 cm, depth: 48 cm, height: 30 cm; weight: 28 kg
