Luminex Software

Luminex software provides complete control of the system and performs data analysis. Your

Luminex 200 system is preloaded with the Luminex software. However, we supply a software

DVD should you need to reinstall the software.

This software requires a dedicated system. Unauthorized additional software is prohibited

and may result in improper operation of the system.

Luminex 200 Performance Specifications

Speed

• USB communications link for fast data transfer

• Automatic transfer of assay templates and new reagent information into the system via a

lare capacity read/write DVD

• Installation: < 4 hours

• System calibration: < 10 minutes

• System controls: < 10 minutes

• Barcode reader entry of sample IDs

• Automatic post-analysis

• Analyze one 96-well plate/hour depending on manufacturer’s kit

• Up to 100 xMAP microsphere sets per sample

• System warmup: 30 minutes. Systems that remain inactive for at least four hours will

require a warm-up to restart the lasers. After acquiring sample, running system calibrators,

running system controls, and warming up the instrument, the system resets the four-hour

internal clock.

Accuracy and Precision

• Sample uptake volume: ± 5%

• Classification of xMAP microspheres: > 80%

• Misclassification of xMAP microspheres: ≤ 2 % - may vary by xMAP microsphere product

lines. Refer to the specific product information sheet for further details.

• Temperature control: 0°C to + 2°C of target
