Gen5 software controls all BioTek automated microplate readers, configuring system and data collection parameters, analysis and a variety of reporting and exporting features. One-click export to Excel® makes it fast and easy to export displayed data.
Gen5 Secure software is available for GxP compliant laboratories with features that support 21 CFR Part 11 rules.

Micro-volume quantification is fast and easy with the Take3™ and Take3 Trio Micro-Volume plates, used in your BioTek microplate reader. Measure multiple 2 µL samples at a time, without diluting and without needing specialized equipment. Pre-programmed nucleic acid and protein protocols in Gen5 make quantification fast and easy.

• Low volume 2 µL nucleic acid and protein quantification
• Pre-programmed protocols in Gen5 Software
• Absorbance and fluorescence detection
• Easy, wipe-off maintenance
• Read 2 µL microspots, BioCells or standard cuvettes

BioTek’s robotic instruments can help automate workflows in your laboratory. Many life science workflows benefit from expanded automation, for increased throughput or process efficiency. BioTek offers unique automation solutions that integrate with our microplate washers, dispensers, readers and imagers. BioStack is a compact stacker that offers fast plate exchange options for 50 plates or more, and patented plate de-lidding and re-lidding with BioStack 4 . BioSpa 8 Automated Incubator links BioTek readers or imagers together with washers and dispensers for full workflow automation of up to 8 microplates. Temperature, CO2/O2 and humidity levels are controlled and monitored through the BioSpa software to maintain an ideal environment for cell cultures during all experimental stages.

Affordable multi-mode reader
At half the price of similar instruments, Synergy LX is the solution for labs looking for an easy to use microplate reader that offers uncompromised performance for UV-Vis absorbance, fluorescence and luminescence assays.

Supports common endpoint assays
Synergy LX, can run the most common assays including:
• A260, A260/A280
• Protein quantification
• Fluorescence, luminescence
• ELISA
• Gene expression
• Cell viability

Micro-volume quantification with Take3 plates
Micro-volume analysis with BioTek’s Take3 plate and Synergy LX is fast and easy, too. Pre-programmed nucleic acid and protein protocols in Synergy LX display immediate results for up to sixteen, 2 µL samples. Output results to a USB flash drive for use in downstream workflows.

Continuous UV-Vis wavelength selection: 200 nm to 999 nm
The broad, filter-free wavelength range for absorbance measurements enables many common colorimetric and UV applications, from nucleic acid and protein quantitification to turbidity measurements and more.

High performance, high blocking filters for fluorescence and luminescence
There’s no compromise on performance in Synergy LX. The high quality filters, coupled with dichroic mirrors in the Synergy LX filter cubes efficiently block background to ensure the best sensitivity for fluorescence measurements.

Touchscreen: Easy operation, immediate data display
It takes only a few touches to select and run your assay. The data is displayed immediately after the run – a color gradient helps to quickly visualize the data range.

Output to USB flash drive, printer or Gen5 Software With one touch, export data to a USB flash drive for analysis in BioTek’s Gen5 software or a spreadsheet application.
