EKKO - CD MICROPLATE READER

EKKO™ CD microplate reader is the first well plate reader designed for circular dichroism measurements. It introduces a new fast and economic tool to meet today’s advanced pharmacopeia requirements. The EKKO™ operates like other well plate readers already on the market for absorbance and fluorescence. By eliminating the need to transfer samples to a cuvette, users significantly reduce the amount of time spent running large numbers of samples. The EKKO™ reads 96 well plates standard,  and can accommodate 384 well plates as an option. The EKKO™ can read 96 wells in less than two minutes. Thousands of measurements are possible per day, making circular dichroism a new high throughput and cost saving technique.

The EKKO™ also saves lab space with a footprint one fourth of conventional CD instruments with autosamplers.
