The Stratus microplate reader is a versatile and compact handheld microplate reader. The Stratus is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand and allows for measurements in small spaces or restrictive environments, like anaerobic or microaerophilic chambers and incubators. Its uniquely simple interface and data storage allow it to be placed anywhere, with or without a computer.
To connect the Stratus Microplate Reader to a computer, the Stratus Labrador Software is required. The software allows for easy control of any experiment: editing new experiments and following ongoing experiments becomes very simple.
