Overview

In addition to 96-well plates, slides, membranes, and custom biosensor formats up to SBS plate format, all sciREADERs ensure high-quality digital imaging of a diverse array of support formats.

The sciREAD software offers flexible imaging and data interpretation and is both robust and user-friendly. External software is not required because everything up until the final customer-specific report is addressed automatically.

Algorithms for spot finding and grid alignment make it possible to automate the analysis process and different options for data normalization and quantification allow for a customized interpretation of the data.
