Product description

Versatile microplate reader with multi-detection modes, ultra-fast UV/Vis, injectors, and temperature control.

The FLUOstar® Omega is a versatile multi-mode microplate reader designed to meet the diverse needs of life science research. This instrument offers rapid and precise measurements across various detection modes, making it an invaluable tool for laboratories seeking efficiency and reliability.

Key features include:

Multiple detection modes: Supports fluorescence intensity (including FRET and TRF), luminescence (including BRET), and UV/Vis absorbance, accommodating a wide range of assays.

Ultra-fast UV/Vis spectrometer: Captures full absorbance spectra from 220 to 1000 nm in less than one second per well, enhancing throughput.

High-precision injectors: Facilitates simultaneous reagent injection and detection, crucial for kinetic studies.

Temperature control and shaking: Offers incubation up to 65°C with linear, orbital, and double-orbital shaking options, supporting various experimental conditions.

Top and bottom reading capabilities: Ensures flexibility in assay design and sample types.

Upgradable design: Allows for the addition of detection modes and accessories, such as the Atmospheric Control Unit (ACU) for O₂ and CO₂ regulation, adapting to evolving research needs.

The FLUOstar® Omega is widely utilised in fields such as molecular biology, biochemistry, pharmacology, and cell biology. Its applications range from nucleic acid quantification and enzyme kinetics to cell viability assays and protein-protein interaction studies.

Commonly found in university laboratories, biomedical research centres, and pharmaceutical companies, this microplate reader has been a reliable asset since its release in 2010. Its enduring relevance is a testament to BMG LABTECH's commitment to quality and innovation in laboratory instrumentation.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
