A unique instrument created for the measurement of all current bio- and chemiluminescence applications. Up to 180 samples placed in a chain can be measured once or sequentially, many times over a long period. Applications include Reporter Gene assays, ATP monitoring, luminescent immunoassays, enzyme measurements or
cellular luminescence.

• An ultra fast single photon counter with an extremely large dynamic range is used for detection. The spectral sensitivity ranges from 370 to 620 nm. Overload detection ensures all measurements are valid.
• Peltier cooling of the detection unit ensures extremely low background noise resulting in unsurpassed sensitivity.
• Liquid handling can be done easily using variable volume injectors. The luminometers can be equipped with up to 3 injectors providing optimum reliability and simplicity. Based on the proprietary JET injection technology, the injectors combine high speed and reliable mixing of reagents with outstanding precision. The injected volume can be adjusted within the range 25 to 300 µL.
  The materials used are able to withstand corrosive substances, which are often used in chemiluminescence assays. The "Unload" operation helps the user to save expensive reagents by returning them to the reagent reservoirs.
• To establish ideal conditions for all cell based applications the measuring chamber can be temperature controlled making the AutoLumat the instrument of choice for cellular
  luminescence assays.

Applications

• ATP Monitoring
• Cellular Chemiluminescence
• DNA probe assays
• Environmental monitoring (Vibrio fischeri test)
• Enzyme activities
• Luminescent Immunoassays
• Reporter Gene Assays (incl. DLR)

Tubemaster Software

Software:
The automatic LB 953 AutoLumat can be operated with the Windows based Tubemaster software.
The built-in software has been developed to provide easy, intuitive operation of the instrument’s
powerful features. Preset assay and measurement templates simplify the use in research and routine applications. The data evaluation functions include ratio calculations and kinetic analysis. Raw data and processed data can be exported and printed. Sample IDs can be uploaded via work lists, and saved with the results.

You can choose from a variety of basic measurement protocols:

• Raw data protocol
• Dual label protocol (incl. Dual reporter gene assays)
• Kinetic measurements
• Cut-off protocol
• Immunoassay protocol (LIA, ILMA) incl. evaluation
