P
erkinElmer is claiming a world first with its new EnSight multimode
plate reader. Te company says it is first plate reader on the market to offer both labelled and label-free detection, together with well-imaging technology
– which facilitates cell imaging – on a single benchtop system. According to PerkinElmer, this combination allows researchers to run their assays on the same platform – generating more predictive results earlier in the drug discovery process.
Scientists can use the EnSight system for research into cancer, cytotoxicity, biotherapeutics, epigenetics and primary/stem cells. Te EnSight system enables them to generate more reliable readouts and obtain an expanded set of data from their samples. Tey can also use the system’s variety of technology modes to perform confirmatory assays, helping to ensure that results
are not biased to the detection technologies used for their sampling.
“With the EnSight system, we’ve applied PerkinElmer’s great expertise in cell imaging to our multimode plate reader technology, and we’ve developed an innovative offering designed to enable scientists to obtain new insights from their research, which can accelerate the development of new therapeutics,” said Brian Kim, president, life sciences & technology, PerkinElmer.
Te system offers cell imaging capabilities that allow researchers to quickly visualise cells and
