Berthold LB953 luminometer

• Sold as-is

The Berthold LB953 automatic tube luminometer AutoLumat is a unique instrument for the measurement of all current bio- and chemiluminescence applications. The applications include Reporter Gene assays, ATP monitoring, luminescent immunoassays, enzyme measurements or cellular luminescence.

Up to 180 samples placed in a chain can be measured once or sequentially many times over a long period.

For detection an ultra-fast single photon counter with an extremely large dynamic range is used. The spectral sensitivity ranges from 380 to 630 nm. Overload detection ensures all measurements are valid. Peltier cooling of the detection unit ensures extremely low background noise resulting in unsurpassed sensitivity.

Liquid handling can be done easily using variable volume injectors. The luminometer can be equipped with up to 3 injectors providing optimum reliability and simplicity.

Based on the proprietary JET injection technology the injectors combine high speed and reliable mixing of reagents with outstanding precision. The injected volume can be adjusted within the range 25 to 300 µL.

The materials used are able to withstand even corrosive substances which are often used in chemiluminescence assays. The ‘Unload’ operation helps the user to save expensive reagents by returning them to the reagent reservoirs.

To establish ideal conditions for all cell-based applications the measuring chamber can be temperature controlled making the AutoLumat the instrument of choice for cellular luminescence assays. Easy sample loading Operation is remarkably easy: You simply insert the samples, and they will be automatically processed by the instrument once the start button has been pressed.

This luminometer is used and reconditioned. Our technicians will power this up and cycle through the menus to ensure that it is in general functional condition but are unable to test it further.
