The Molecular Devices SpectraMax M2e Microplate Reader is an enhanced version of the M2, providing greater sensitivity for fluorescence assays and more robust multi-mode performance. With dual monochromators and a wavelength range of 200 to 1000 nm, the M2e supports absorbance, fluorescence intensity, and temperature-controlled kinetic assays with high accuracy.
It features top- and bottom-read capabilities, making it ideal for cell-based assays, ELISAs, and endpoint detection. The advanced optical path and PathCheck® technology ensure consistent, reliable results across 96- and 384-well formats.
Whether you're conducting high-throughput screening or standard quantification, the SpectraMax M2e offers flexibility, precision, and value — making it a preferred choice for many labs needing a reliable Spectromax microplate reader.
