Ultramark Microplate Imaging System

Bio-Rad's Ultramark microplate reader is unlike any other. It's the only reader that allows you to read any plate format, from a single well to 1,536 wells. It's the only one that provides verifiable results up to 4.0 OD. And it's the world's only microplate reader that also serves as an imager. The Ultramark truly is a remarkable performer!

The Most Flexible, Adaptable Microplate Reader Ever

In today's rapidly changing world of life science research, you need the right equipment for your field of study. Utilizing the most advanced technology, the Ultramark microplate imaging system is a versatile, adaptable tool that enables you to perform far more applications than any other microplate reader available. Ultramark is much more than a simple 96-well microplate reader.

Because the Ultramark reader can read any microplate format, you're able to produce single results for each well, or an image of the entire plate surface. Additionally, complete robotics capability means the Ultramark reader can be interfaced as a detector for high-throughput analysis with any type of robotic system.
