LUMIstar Omega

Dedicated microplate luminometer

The LUMIstar® Omega is BMG LABTECH’s powerful dedicated luminescence microplate reader, providing highly sensitive flash and glow assay readings. This DLReady-certified microplate reader can also come equipped with Simultaneous Dual Emission for BRET applications, and can be further upgraded to a multi-mode reader

Technical Specification

Spectral range
Spectral range 240 – 740 nm
Read times
16 s (96), 47 s (384)
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
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.
