Molecular Devices SpectraMax 384 Microplate Reader

This is a used Molecular Devices SpectraMax 384 microplate reader, a versatile absorbance based instrument designed to accommodate both 96 well and 384 well plate formats. It was built to give laboratories flexibility as they scaled up throughput without needing to invest in an entirely new detection platform. The unit has been tested and continues to deliver accurate optical density readings across a broad wavelength range. The SpectraMax 384 pairs with SoftMax Pro software, a widely used data analysis suite that many lab technicians are already familiar with, easing the transition for teams upgrading from other Molecular Devices instruments. Its monochromator based optics allow users to select any wavelength within its range without needing dedicated filters, which adds convenience for multi assay laboratories running different protocols throughout the week. This reader is well suited for ELISA, enzyme kinetics, and general absorbance assays in academic, pharmaceutical, and clinical research settings. Because it handles higher density plate formats, it is a good fit for labs looking to increase throughput on a modest budget. The unit is offered used and in working condition, ready to support an active plate based assay workflow.
