Why Choose BMG LABTECH Instruments?

BMG LABTECH microplate readers are renowned for their “Made in Germany” quality, integrating advanced detection technologies that minimize variability and maximize signal-to-noise ratios. Whether your lab requires a dedicated absorbance plate reader or a comprehensive multi-mode microplate reader, these instruments offer modular upgradeability to adapt as research needs evolve.

The brand’s product portfolio includes the PHERAstar FSX HTS microplate reader, a gold-standard system for screening that maintains superior Z-factor (Zʹ) values even in miniaturized 3456-well formats. This reader features simultaneous dual emission and dedicated optic modules for advanced detection modes like TR-FRET, fluorescence polarization, and AlphaScreen. Similarly, the CLARIOstar Plus multi-mode microplate reader utilizes revolutionary Linear Variable Filter (LVF) monochromator technology, which combines filter-like sensitivity with the spectral flexibility of a monochromator. This allows researchers to precisely tune wavelengths for fluorescence and luminescence assays without compromising on light transmission.

For laboratories seeking flexibility, the FLUOstar Omega plate reader and the SPECTROstar Omega offer reliable performance for standard applications, including ELISA, DNA quantification, and microbial growth curves. The Omega microplate systems are equipped with an ultra-fast UV/Vis spectrometer that captures full absorbance spectra in less than one second per well. Additionally, the VANTAstar multi-mode microplate reader provides a compact solution with simplified workflow tools like Enhanced Dynamic Range (EDR), which automatically adjusts gain settings to ensure optimal data capture across a broad range of signal intensities.​

BMG LABTECH instruments are validated for major reagent platforms, including LanthaScreen and HTRF, ensuring seamless integration into established screening protocols. The proprietary MARS data analysis software simplifies complex calculations, such as enzyme kinetics (Km and Vmax) and standard curve fitting, streamlining the path from microplate reading to actionable results. By offering features like atmospheric control and robust shaking options, these readers also support long-term live-cell kinetic assays, making them a versatile choice for dynamic biological studies.
