Reader Check Plate

The Anthos Reader Check Plate is used for validating the performance of the measurement system of the microplate readers.

The reader check plate is an easy to use tool  to validate performance.

The following parameters are tested:

Alignment
Crosstalk (for multi-channel reader models)
Spectral blocking
Linearity
Filter wavelength verification
Overflow limit (0% transmittance) and
0 OD limit (100% transmittance)

Luminometer Testplate

The Luminometer Testplate provides a series of stable light samples by means of controlled LED's,
which allow to check the correct measurement function and performance of luminometers

Dynamic range:
Twelve standard positions in row A cover a range from 300 counts/sec up to 50 million counts/sec with Lucy 2 / Lucy 3

Cross-talk:
A single light spot on position D2 allows for testing cross-talk: Divide the maximum value of the 8 surrounding wells by the value of D2. This result must be less or equal 5*10^-5.

Reproducibility:
The CV of 8 subsequent measurements of well A5 must be less or equal 1%
