BIOREADER® 7000 -E
Our Bioreader® counts 100% of the filter area! No losses due to the exclusion of the outer border/filter region.
The BIOREADER® 7000 -E is the best choice to evaluate enzymatic Elispot assays, Plaque/FOCI assays or other assays in 96 well or eve 384 well plates.
Verified and validated in international studies.
Model variants:
The Alpha is optimized for one specific plate type. This model is for example commonly used with Tuberculosis assay in 8-well strip plates.
The Beta can be used for all other kinds of 96 well plates, incl. wells with small volume, transparent, black and white plates with clear bottom and transparent or white Microfilter plates. This model can also count 2 different immunohistochemical or enzymatic colors per well.
Non-Fluoro substrats and staining
This BIOREADER® 7000 is specially designed for visible CV or immunhistochemical substrates.
The patented dual telecentric illumination suppresses reflection of the sidewall of Microfilter plates.
Elispot with all available substrates like AEC,Silver,TMB or BCIP/NBT
Enzyme conjugates like Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) or Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP)

"The enzyme-linked immune absorbent spot (ELISpot) is a type of assay that focuses on quantitatively measuring the frequency of cytokine secretion for a single cell."
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELISpot]
Why to use Elispot
•The cytokine Elispot assay is designed to enumerate cytokine secreting cells in single cell suspensions of lymphoid tissue, CNS tissue, bone marrow or preparations of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC).
•The assay has the advantage of detecting only activated/memory T cells and the cytokine release can be detected at the single cell level, allowing direct determination of T cell frequencies.
•The assay has the advantage of detecting only activated/memory T cells and the cytokine release can be detected at the single cell level, allowing direct determination of T cell frequencies.
The ELISPOT assay is an effective tool to enumerate antigen-specific T cells in the circulation of immunized humans and animals at much lower frequencies than possible with other currently available methods
The ELISPOT assay has proven to be a sensitive and unique system to follow disease progression in human individuals or animals. Several studies have indicated that alterations in the frequency of cytokine pc in different compartments of the body adequately reflect changes in immune function
The ELISPOT assay may be used to determine effects of drugs, chemicals or other compounds on cytokine secretion in vitro, thereby providing data on their putative modulatory effects on immune function in vivo

Foci assay: total well view
"The focus forming assay (FFA) is a variation of the plaque assay, but instead of relying on cell lysis in order to detect plaque formation, the FFA employs immunostaining techniques using fluorescently labeled antibodies specific for a viral antigen to detect infected host cells and infectious virus particles before an actual plaque is formed."

"The plaque reduction neutralization test is used to quantify the titer of neutralizing antibody for a virus. The serum sample or solution of antibody to be tested is diluted and mixed with a viral suspension." [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plaque_reduction_neutralization_test]
