Microplate reader ZMR-A12 consists of 10.4-inch LCD display touch-screen and an optical system with 8-channel optical fiber scanning. It can store 500 test items and million test data points and perform 20 different tests on just one plate. The system is equipped with a USB interface for easy connection to the PC and built-in printer. It works on a single or dual wavelength, gives qualitative and quantitative data evaluation, and also consists of an LED or tungsten halogen lamp as a light source.

Frequently Asked Question
The reader provides a broad absorbance range of 0.000 to 4.000 A, allowing for both low and high concentration sample analysis.
In most cases, yes. Depending on the model, the reader may support custom or additional filters for specific assay requirements. Check with the manufacturer for filter slot compatibility and ordering.
Yes, most models support integration with data analysis software for ELISA, kinetic, and endpoint assays. USB and RS-232 ports allow software connectivity, and software is usually included or optionally available.
You can choose between: 8V/50W Controlled Tungsten Halogen Lamp – ideal for a broad spectrum of light and traditional use. LED Lamp – for long-lasting, energy-efficient performance with reduced maintenance needs.
The reader includes multiple interface options: USB – for data transfer and peripheral connections RS-232 – for serial communication VGA and DVI – for display output or external monitoring These options support easy integration with computers, printers, or other laboratory systems.
Not necessarily. However, it is recommended to use optically clear, flat-bottom plates designed for your specific detection mode to ensure accuracy and consistency.
Single-mode readers are ideal for labs focused on one application (e.g., ELISA). Multi-mode readers offer flexibility for multiple assay types and are suited for diverse research needs.
Clean the optical path regularly as per the manufacturer's instructions. Avoid spills inside the reader. Use lint-free wipes and appropriate cleaning solutions for lenses and trays. Schedule annual calibration and servicing.
Plate quality and cleanliness Proper calibration Consistent sample volume Temperature stability Reader maintenance
Yes, most modern readers support kinetic measurements by capturing data over time. This is useful for enzyme kinetics, cell growth assays, or real-time monitoring of reactions.
Calibration is typically done using certified calibration plates or internal protocols provided by the manufacturer. Some models offer automated calibration features.
Yes, many microplate readers can integrate with liquid-handling robots, stackers, and LIMS systems for high-throughput workflows.
