SpectraMax® ABS Plus

SpectraMax® ABS and ABS Plus Absorbance ELISA Microplate Readers
The SpectraMax® ABS and ABS Plus Absorbance ELISA Microplate Readers bridges the gap between the affordability of filter-based readers and the flexibility of monochromator-based systems with PathCheck® Sensor—the only patented technology available that measures the depth (optical pathlength) of samples in a microplate.

Key Features of SpectraMax® ABS Plus absorbance microplate readers
Pipetting errors eliminated
This reader utilizes Molecular Devices' temperature independent PathCheck Sensor technology to measure the depth (optical pathlength) of samples in a microplate. It also allows for the elimination of standard curves.

Optimized optical path
The reader's unique quartz fiber optic system minimizes stray light for precise readings across a microplate. The spectral resolution ensures accuracy of DNA absorbance measurements.

Eight-channel optics
The optical design of the reader enables simultaneous detection of 8 wells. The eight-channel system delivers both precision and speed across the microplate.

Dual wavelength reads
The reader delivers high performance with round-bottom, flat-bottom or half-area well plates. Dual wavelength readings report the actual absorbance at each wavelength making data analysis convenient.

Flexibility to read a variety of plate formats
SpectraMax® Absorbance Microplate Readers can run both cuvette-based and microplate reader applications on the same instrument. Read one sample or up to 384 in a single plate read using any standard cuvette, or 96- or 384-well microplate.

Validation made easy
Verify the accuracy of your absorbance measurements with the SpectraTest® ABS1 Absorbance Validation Plate, using NIST-traceable standards. Testing can be done in your own lab, on your own schedule.
