The Molecular Devices SpectraMax M2 Microplate Reader is a powerful, dual-mode spectrophotometer combining absorbance and fluorescence detection in a single compact instrument. Ideal for a wide range of life science applications, it features dual monochromators allowing flexible wavelength selection from 200 to 1000 nm, without needing filters.
The SpectraMax M2 is designed for endpoint, kinetic, spectral scanning, and well-scan modes, making it suitable for ELISA assays, protein quantification, DNA/RNA analysis, and more. Its advanced optical system delivers high sensitivity and reproducibility, while the built-in PathCheck® technology ensures pathlength correction for accurate comparisons.
This unit is a trusted choice for laboratories seeking a reliable, Molecular Devices Spectromax microplate reader that balances precision, flexibility, and affordability.
