Multimode microplate reader with xenon flash lamp, spectral scanning, and 6-384 well compatibility.
The Thermo Scientific Varioskan ALF Multimode Microplate Reader is a versatile instrument designed for a wide range of microplate assays, including absorbance, turbidimetric, fluorescence, and luminescence measurements. Its photometric optical design, featuring a xenon flash lamp and monochromator, enables continuous wavelength selection from UV through the visible range up to 1000 nm, facilitating applications such as nucleic acid and protein quantification, bacterial growth curves, ELISA, and cell viability assays.
Key features include:
This microplate reader is widely utilised in biotechnology, molecular biology, and clinical diagnostics for applications such as nucleic acid quantification, protein analysis, and cell viability assays. It is commonly employed in university laboratories, biomedical research centres, and clinical environments. The Varioskan ALF remains relevant and in use as of 2025, continuing to support a broad spectrum of research needs.
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.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
