Microarray Scanner
LS Reloaded automation-friendly microarray scanners support both customized array formats and microplates. High throughput and automatic gain control are accomplished using different laser and filter combinations in one scan. Dynamic range of intensities is extended by providing a series of gain settings in batch scan option within the experiment. Laser beam angle is adjustable and supports evanescence resonance scanning of glass wavers. Depending on the customer's needs, the LS Reloaded series is available with 2, 3 or 4 lasers and allows simultaneous 2-color scanning. Linked to Tecan´s Connect generic microplate autoloader, the scanners enable unattended throughput of up to 200 microarray slides or 50 microplates. The instruments can be supplied with LaserCheck plate, a kit that permits automatic quality control through easy calibration, and that is independent of the fluorescence standards used. The automated focus of the instrument works with any substrate, dimension, transparency or planarity. The system also allows non-confocal and confocal detection with scalable confocality according to planarity or bulkiness of the active substrate surface.
