Gemini Microplate Fluorometer
Gemini EM is a microplate spectrofluorometer from
Molecular Devices.
It has dual scanning monochromators that allow for 1 nm increment selection
over the wavelength range of 250 - 850 nm. Bandwidth for both excitation
and emission is 9 nm. Lamp source is a Xenon flash lamp (1 Joule/flash).
Scanning options are endpoint, kinetic, spectral scanning, and well
scanning. Microplate formats include 6-384 well plates. Top and bottom readings
are available. Additional features include shaker and temperature control.
