V301001 | Lu-mini benchtop luminometer for biological and chemical luminescence quantification

Key Features

• Accepts round-bottomed tubes, flat-bottomed vials and square cuvettes
• Intuitive touchscreen user interface
• Large data storage capacity for up to 1000 test results
• Compact and portable
• Fast reading time with optional integration phase
• Versatile protocol selection including single/dual point, peak detect and kinetic data collection
• USB connectivity for sample/results data transfer and configuration via included PC software

Description

The Lu-mini single tube luminometer is ideal for the measurement of bioluminescent and chemiluminescent reactions. Key applications include:

• Reporter gene assays
• ATP determination
• Hygiene monitoring
• Environmental analysis
• DNA probe assays
• Luminescent immunoassays (LIA)
• Mycoplasma detection

The Lu-mini uses a novel solid-state photon detector system and features an intuitive colour touchscreen interface. The unique sample chamber of the Lu-mini accommodates a variety of sample formats including tubes, vials and cuvettes without the need for an adapter. Unlike most handheld instruments, where factors such as sample measurement angle could affect the reading, the USB-powered Lu-mini ensures consistent sample reading. 

The PC software included with the Lu-mini allows the end-user to carry out in-depth data analysis to optimize assay protocols and performance. The unit has the capacity to store up to 1000 test results and features USB connectivity for sample and results data transfer and for software configuration.
