Synergy 2 Multi-Detection Microplate Reader is a compact, modular system that provides fluorescence intensity, fluorescence polarization, time-resolved fluorescence, luminescence and UV-visible absorbance detection. The instrument combines a monochromator, filters and dichroic mirrors to perform at a high level in all modes. Three broad-spectrum light sources supply optimal illumination and excitation in all applications. Gen5 Reader Control and Data Analysis Software control the instrument.
