Easy-to-Use Touchscreen
The simple touchscreen interface of the SpectraMax i3x allows you to quickly and easily start your experiments, change detection modules, or configure SmartInject settings.
Live Cell Imaging
The SpectraMax MiniMax 300 Imaging Cytometer option allows for live cell imaging and analysis (left). The ScanLater Western Blot Detection Cartridge enables protein detection (below).
Visualize cells with your microplate reader
Imaging with the SpectraMax MiniMax 300 Imaging Cytometer mirrors the plate reading workflow on the SpectraMax i3x System. The plate is set up for reading and images are acquired according to specified parameters. Cells in each image are identified by SoftMax Pro Software and cell-by-cell statistics are collected. Data is then analyzed and visualized in different graphical representations.

Capture Flash Assays with Ease
Dual injector cartridges for the SpectraMax® i3x Multi-Mode Microplate Detection Platform allow you to expand your research capabilities to include fast flash based applications, including dual luciferase and ATP assays.
Bubble detection protects your assay accuracy
SmartInject Technology provides simultaneous injection and mixing to optimize assay sensitivity
Overflow protection prevents reagent spillage within the instrument
Reverse prime for low dead volume (10uL)
New Techniques in Minutes
Adding new modes and functionality is just seconds away. Simply insert a new detection module to expand your application capabilities to include additional read modes such as western blot, AlphaScreen, HTRF, and Injectors, among many others.
Quantitative low-light measurement
Cooled PMT reduces background noise allowing for a more sensitive, wide dynamic range in extremely low light.
See what’s really happening to your cells
Quick imaging and analysis of cells gives you a front-row view of the phenotypic changes that accompany cytotoxicity, cell proliferation, and protein expression.
