Photometry

Absorbance and turbidity modes can be used for nucleic acid analysis, protein quantitation, ELISA, cell viability assays, and endotoxin testing.

Fluorimetry

The fluorescent mode can be used for reporter gene assays, calcium flux assays, binding assays, nucleic acid quantitation, and cell viability assays.

Luminometry

The luminescent mode can be used for ATP assays (cytotoxicity, proliferation, or contamination), reporter gene assays, Ca²⁺ assays, and protein-protein interactions (binding studies).
