Based on an innovative system of 96 infrared microbeams, the system detects the small interferences generated by the organisms present in the sample. In this way, a pattern of activity is recorded, which will be processed by software specially designed for real-time data acquisition.
The digital analysis of signal changes (proportional to light intensity) allows us to detect the movement of the organism passing through the beam of light. A software calculates the number of activity events per time block.
The device can perform High Throughput assays in liquid medium in the following microplate formats:
- 96-well flat bottom [1 IR beam/well]
- 96-well U-bottom [1 IR beam/well]
- 8 to 32 Glass tubes for small insects (4-6 beams per tube)
