GloRunner™ Microplate Luminometer

The GloRunner™ Microplate Luminometer is the ideal multiwell luminometer for chemiluminescent ELISA and CLIA (Chemiluminescent Immunoassays). Using a proprietary eight-channel solid state array, the GloRunner™ reads all eight wells of a microplate column simultaneously and the entire plate in approximately 45 seconds.

The GloRunner™ is the ideal multiwell luminometer for glow type luminescence assays because it is:

• Sensitive: Detects attomolar levels of enzyme
• Linear: 8-log dynamic range
• Fast: Reads an entire 96-well plate in approximately 45 seconds
• Small: Maximizes available bench space
• Intuitive: Results in under two minutes from power on
• Confident:Generates reliable data
• Supported: Obtain help from us when you need it
• Affordable: Economical enough to fit in even a small laboratory budget

Sensitive

The inexpensive GloRunner™ Microplate Luminometer provides high sensitivity and precision for luminescent ELISA assays. Its minimum detection limits for commonly used chemiluminescent enzyme and substrate combinations are comparable to photon counting microplate systems that are much more expensive! Now you can have the added sensitivity benefits of chemiluminescence at an affordable price.

Linear

The GloRunner's solid state array detection technology has a very broad linear dynamic range. Less assay optimization is required when changing from colorimetric to luminescent assay formats. The broad dynamic range also provides exceptional linearity for standard curves. The GloRunner™ gives you accurate quantitative luminescence results in less time, allowing you to focus more on what counts--your research.

Intuitive

The GloRunner™ Microplate Luminometer is so easy to use that you are an instant expert with this powerful research tool. Results are available within minutes of turning on the system for the first time--even if you haven't previously used a multiwell luminometer! The software is straightforward, so you can focus your expertise on research--not the instrument.

1. Select assay parameters and wells to be read.

2. Press Start

3. With one click of a button your data is exported into MS Excel.

Fast



With its proprietary eight-channel detector design, the GloRunner™ Microplate Luminometer reads an entire 96-well plate in approximately 45 seconds with a 1 second per well integration time. This speed minimizes the impact of half-life, temperature, and other chemistry variables, and increases your confidence in the results.

Small


The GloRunner™ provides high value in a smaller package than many other luminometers. Maximizes use of your valuable bench space.

Economical

The GloRunner's low cost of acquisition makes it ideal for laboratories with a limited equipment budget.

Confidence

With the GloRunner Standardization Light Plate, you can verify that the instrument is performing consistently over time. This plate has eight calibrated light sources that ensure consistent results from the detector array. This plate has been tested extensively over time and varying temperatures. The CV is less than 1% within a channel and between all eight channels.
