Plate readers (also know as microplate readers) are laboratory instruments designed to detect biological, chemical or physical events in samples stored in microtiter plates. Biology is the branch of science dealing with the study of life. ... Chemistry (derived from alchemy) is the science of matter at or near the atomic scale. ... The first few hydrogen atom electron orbitals shown as cross-sections with color-coded probability density. ... A Microtiter plate or microplate is a flat plate with multiple wells used as small test tubes. ...
These devices typically use optical and/or computer vision techniques to evaluate the contents of the microtiter plate wells. An ELISA plate reader, for example, is used to measure the intensity of the colors formed in each wells. ELISPOT plate readers are used to count the colored spots that are formed in the course of ELISPOT assays. Using these plate readers can eliminate (or at least, help reduce) the amount of human subjectivity which goes into evaluating the plate contents. To meet Wikipedias quality standards, this article or section may require cleanup. ... ELISPOT is an immunological assay based on ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay). ...
Platereaders (also know as microplate readers) are laboratory instruments designed to detect biological, chemical or physical events in samples stored in microtiter plates.
An ELISAplatereader, for example, is used to measure the intensity of the colors formed in each wells.
ELISPOTplatereaders are used to count the colored spots that are formed in the course of ELISPOT assays.
The microtiter platereader of claim 3 including a transparent overlay that is sandwiched between the light emitting surface and the bezel, and wherein the regions of reduced light emission are fl dots arrayed upon the transparent overlay.
The microtiter platereader of claim 4 wherein the transparent overlay is sandwiched between the light emitting surface and the bezel in sliding relation thereto, so that the fl dot array may be shifted relative to the location of the wells of a microtiter plate held within the window.
The microtiter platereader 10 is adapted for use with a conventional microtiter plate 14.
