BioTek’s Epoch Microplate Spectrophotometer is designed for a wide range of applications, from nucleic acid and protein quantification to cell-based assays and ELISAs. Epoch bridges the gap between high-cost, high-performance, monochromator-based absorbance readers and the lower cost, lower performing filter-based absorbance readers by providing excellent, full spectral UV/Vis measurements in a compact, efficient and robust design. Epoch’s high quality optical system incorporates a precision monochromator for wavelength selection without using interference filters. Microplate assays in 6- to 384-well plates are quickly and efficiently run via Gen5 Software.

When sample volumes are critical, the optional Take3 Micro- Volume Plates allow up to sixteen or forty-eight 2 μL samples to be measured quickly and easily in the Epoch. For the budget conscious laboratory focused on important nucleic acid and protein quantification as well as standard ELISA and other colorimetric assays, the Epoch Microplate Spectrophotometer offers unsurpassed versatility. To further automate your process, BioStack can be integrated to an optional robot compatible Epoch model.
