Southern California Analytic - New & Used Lab Equipment

PACKARD

TOP COUNT

1. An isothermal counting chamber maintains a controlled counting temperature for all assays independent of laboratory environment, to assure reproducible counting conditions for even the most temperature sensitive binding reactions.

2. Patented single PMT counting uses TR-LSC2 technology to measure each sample from the top, in standard format microplates. TopCount makes it possible to count liquid scintillation, solid scintillation, and scintillating proximity assays (SPA) in the same system.

3. Simultaneously count 2, 6 or 12 samples in 96-well plates; 2 or 6 samples in 24-well plates; or select a VariPlate(tm) model to count 2 or 6 samples simultaneously in either format.

4. Automatic single label DPM calculation is standard on all systems. An Automatic External Standard (AES) option for 24-well and VariPlate systems ensures the highest accuracy for low count rate, single label samples and for most dual label applications.

5. Easy access external loading microplate sample changer. Removable microplate stackers (optional on some models) load up to 1920 samples in the 96-well format, 360 samples in the 24-well format for multi-assay sample processing. Plate formats can be intermixed in VariPlate systems.

6. Positive sample identification is insured with an automatic bar code reader, and with bar code labels affixed directly to the sample microplate. Bar coding also facilitates automatic protocol selection and data processing for multiple assays.

7. A built-in PC processes data automatically using any of the 60 pre-programmed assay protocols. Counting results can be directly imported into spreadsheet or database programs. Results can also be processed without user intervention using dedicated commercial programs, your own compatible data reduction routines, or Packard’s special application programs.
