Molecular Devices: SpectraMax Gemini XS Microplate Spectrofluorometer (RRID:SCR_020296) | instrument resource | SPECTRAmax GEMINI XS Dual-Scanning Microplate Spectrofluorometer can perform a variety of fluorescent applications as well as some time-resolved fluorescent and luminescent assays. The extreme flexibility and high sensitivity of the SPECTRAmax GEMINI XS make it appropriate for applications within the fields of biochemistry, cell biology, immunology, molecular biology, and microbiology. The SPECTRAmax GEMINI XS uses two holographic diffraction grating monochromators which allow for individual optimization of wavelengths for both excitation and emission. The dual-scanning capability can also be used to determine excitation and emission settings for new fluorescent probes. Mirrored optics focus the light into the sample volume and cutoff filters are used to reduce stray light and minimize background interference. The light source is a highpowered Xenon flashlamp; additional flexibility is provided by allowing a variable number of lamp flashes per read. Microplates having 6, 12, 24, 48, 96, and 384 wells can be used in the SPECTRAmax GEMINI XS. Fluorescent detection is achieved from the top, through the entire depth of sample in the microplate well. Detection of species collected on membrane plates is also possible. Two plate carrier adapters are provided with the instrument. The blue adapter is required for optimum performance with standard 96- and 384-well format microplates. The red adapter has been optimized for use with Cliniplate 384 microplates. | Molecular Devices, Microplate Spectrofluorometer, Instrument Equipment, USEDit | Commercially available | https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SciCrunch/RRID-Instruments/main/PDF/SCR_020296.pdf | Model_Number_SpectraMax Gemini XS | SCR_020296 | 2026-08-01 12:06:54 | 0 | |||||||||

Perkin Elmer: UltraView ERS (RRID:SCR_020405) | instrument resource | PerkinElmer UltraVIEW system (PerkinElmer Life Sciences Inc., MA, USA) is a Yokogawa (Yokogawa Corp. Japan) Nipkow Spinning Disk Confocal System. It uses a spinning disk with multiple pinholes to achieve confocality (e.g. the rejection of out-of-focus light). Emission light from the sample passes through the pinholes to generate a confocal image of the sample that can be detected with an EMCCD (Electron Multiplification Charge-Coupled Device) camera. Spinning disk confocal systems have 2 main advantages over conventional Laser Scanning Confocal Microscopes (LSCM): Higher imaging speed: up to 360frames/sec compared to 0.5-1 frames per second in a LSC and Lower photo-toxicity: around 5 times less than a LSCM, probably due to the fact that the system splits the laser light into thousands of minibeams. | Perkin Elmer, Confocal Spinning Disk Microscope, Instrument Equipment, USEDit | Commercially available | SCR_020405 | 2026-08-01 12:06:56 | 5 | |||||||||||
