HM-384Q Full Spectrum Microplate Reader

Product Introduction

The HM-384Q full spectrum microplate reader is a high-throughput analytical instrument engineered for laboratories that demand maximum plate density and spectral flexibility. Built on UV-Vis spectrophotometry principles, it covers a continuous wavelength range from 190 nm to 1100 nm and supports both 384-well and 96-well microplates as well as single-channel cuvettes. This dual-format capability allows research teams to scale from standard ELISA workflows to ultra-high-throughput drug screening without acquiring additional instruments.

At the optical core, a long-life pulsed xenon flash lamp delivers stable illumination exceeding 10⁹ flashes, while the dual-beam reference optical path continuously compensates for environmental variations. The Android 10 operating system and 10-inch color touchscreen provide an integrated platform for method development, template presetting, and real-time data visualization. Three detection modes — endpoint, kinetic, and spectral scanning — accommodate diverse assay chemistries from protein quantification to enzyme inhibition kinetics.

For laboratories operating under regulatory oversight, the HM-384Q integrates three-level user permission management and a complete audit trail compliant with GLP/GMP standards. Built-in thermal printing, USB data export in Excel and PDF formats, and Wi-Fi connectivity for cloud-based remote upgrades ensure seamless integration into modern laboratory workflows.
