Plate reader with dedicated optics designed to deliver exceptional results for glow, flash and dual-color luminescence applications.
This instrument is equipped with a dedicated luminescence module for measuring glow and dual-color luminescent assays. The addition of an optional Te-Inject™ reagent injector, offers greater versatility by allowing flash luminescence measurements.
An integrated optical fiber delivers optimal sensitivity (typically <12 amol/well ATP), and is optimized for use with plates up to 384 wells. This makes the instrument the perfect choice for increasing sample throughput, saving your lab time and money!
Show moreBoth channels of the reagent injector are compatible with 384-well plates, allowing you to perform Dual Luciferase Reporter® assays (Promega) in a high throughput fashion.
The system’s luminescence filter wheel also allows you to perform dual-color luminescence assays, including the new NanoBRET™ technology. These dedicated and validated filters are pre-installed, helping to guarantee maximum performance for advanced assay technologies.
This Technical Note describes optimized test set-ups, instrument settings and the statistical equations that were used to determine the maximum instrument sensitivity of the Infinite F200 PRO filter-based microplate reader and the Infinite M200 PRO Quad4 Monochromators-based microplate reader for flash and glow luminescence.
The BacTiter-Glo Microbial Cell Viability Assay was tested on the Infinite F200 PRO filter-based multimode reader, using the instrument’s highly sensitive luminescence module.
This note describes the Dual Luciferase Reporter Assay performance using Tecan’s Infinite 200 PRO multimode reader equipped with a two channel injector.
Dynamic interactions between proteins are key mediators of multiple cellular functions and are involved in almost all biological processes. Accordingly, they are valuable targets for the development of novel drug therapies. In this context, bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET), developed by Promega, is a well-established detection technology for the investigation of protein-protein interactions in living cells. However, its application has so far been somewhat hampered by its limited dynamic range and sensitivity.

Upgradeable absorbance plate reader delivering sensitive results for ELISAs and low volume nucleic acid or protein quantification assays. Automated pathlength correction and low volume NanoQuant plate deliver high precision results every day, independent from sample volumes.
The Infinite M Nano’s excitation monochromator is specifically optimized for wavelength accuracy and precision, delivering excellent performance for every absorbance assay.
Show moreExceptional wavelenth accuracy (typically <0.5 % at 260 nm ) and precision (typically < 0.2 % at 260 nm ) prerequisites for high performance absorbance applications, including nucleic acid quantification and spectral recording.
With the optional low volume NanoQuant Plate™ and cuvette port, this reader represents a perfect tool for DNA/RNA quantifications (A260/280) and purity checks (A260/230), allowing you to work with a variety of sample formats and volumes, from 2 µl to 1 ml.
Well-to-well variations in path length can be a major issue for absorbance measurements in microplates, so i-control offers easy path length correction, giving you full control for comparable readouts every time.
The NanoQuant Plate from Tecan allows researchers to measure the concentration and purity of nucleic acids of up to 16 samples simultaneously. Additionally, the efficiency of the nucleic acid labeling with dyes can be easily determined with this tool.
Siloam Biosciences’ OptiMax microplate (based on the Optimiser technology platform) offers rapid, sensitive and specific chemifluorescence-based ELISA procedures using exceedingly small sample volumes. The speed, sensitivity and small sample requirements are achieved as a result of the unique microfluidic design of the Optimiser technology.

The present note describes the implementation of the NanoQuant Plate for protein measurements with regard to essential assay parameters such as linearity, uniformity, and reproducibility.
One of the most used methods for determining nucleic acid concentrations is based on measuring the optical density of a sample at 260 nm (OD260). According to the Lambert-Beer law, the amount of absorbed light is proportional to the concentration of the sample, and to the pathlength the light has to pass through when going through the sample.

Dual-mode plate reader with monochromator-based optics for absorbance and sensitive fluorescence (top and bottom reading) applications. Your adjustable tool, even for low concentration nucleic acid and protein quantification.
The Infinite M Nano+ has an excitation monochromator optimized for wavelength accuracy and precision, ensuring excellent performance for every absorbance and fluorescence assay.
Engineered for absorbance and fluorescence measurements, the system’s highly sensitive Quad4 Monochromators™ minimize stray light, delivering exceptional flexibility with sensitivity levels close to comparatively priced filter-based instruments.
Show moreThis system is the perfect solution for nucleic acid quantification, especially if A260 measurements are not sensitive enough. With DNA concentrations of <1 ng/µl, accurate quantification requires a fluorescent dye, such as Quant-iT™ PicoGreen® (Thermo Fisher). The design of the instrument’s top reading fluorescence optics allow it to measure fluorescently-labeled nucleic acids in both microplates and Tecan’s low volume NanoQuant Plate™ – offering virtually the same capabilities as a NanoDrop® and a Qubit™ in one device, while still supporting microplate formats and being fully upgradeable.

Dual-mode plate reader with filter-based optics for absorbance and fluorescence (top and bottom reading) applications. Your cost-effective tool for highest demands in sensitivity.
The Infinite F Nano+ has been created to provide an affordable, filter-based solution delivering sensitive results for typical absorbance and fluorescence applications.
Show moreUsing filter-based optics offers higher sensitivity than monochromator-based systems, with the trade-off being reduced flexibility in wavelength selection. The Infinite F Nano+ minimizes this inconvenience by using L-shaped filter slides, which can hold up to four absorbance or fluorescence filters. Each slide has an ID chip that allows you to save filter definitions directly onto, enabling the system to automatically recognize the filters and simplifying slide handling.
The system’s fluorescence optics include dichroic mirrors to dramatically improve performance for fluorescent dyes that are excited below and emit light above 510 nm, such as fluorescein. This ensures very low detection limits, typically around 85 amol/well (384-well plate, 100 µl).
