Tecan Microplate Reader 360 nm Filter for GENios Series

The 360 nm filter for the Tecan GENios series is a specialized optical component primarily used for fluorescence excitation. In the GENios architecture, these filters are mounted into specialized excitation or emission filter slides.

Core Applications

The 360 nm wavelength is essential for several high-value laboratory protocols:

• DNA/RNA Quantification: Used in conjunction with Hoechst 33258 or PicoGreen dyes to measure nucleic acid concentration with high sensitivity.

• Enzyme Assays: Ideal for monitoring UMU (Umbelliferone) or MUG (4-Methylumbelliferyl-β-D-glucuronide) assays, where the byproduct fluoresces when excited at 360 nm.

• 360 nm is often used as a preferred excitation wavelength for fluorescently monitoring metabolic activity.

Used; excellent condition.
