Microplate reading

 
The Microplate reading tool allows to connect a plate reader to a computer running BioloMICS and quickly perform an analysis of samples and retrieve the results.
 
 
  • Connect the microplate reader to the work station (laptop, computer, etc.) and insert the microplate into the reader.
     
     
  • Under Other Tools, in the Miscellaneous group, click Microplate auto reader.
     
     
  • Select the reader (number 4). For the moment, three readers are available to connect to BioloMICS: Asys Digiscan, Labsystem and Molecular Devices Emax.
     
     
  • Define which number of Communication port (number 5) is used to connect the microplate reader with the computer running BioloMICS and the Filter number (number 6) of the reader.
     
     
  • Select if the samples are in a 96 wells microplate or in a 384 wells microplate.
     
     
  • A Multiple reading allows defining several readings to be performed in a certain interval of time, in seconds, that has to be set in Interval between readings.
     
     
  • When all the parameters are specified, click on Start reading (number 1).
     
    Results will be automatically saved in the grid.
