Capacity

The specifications below reflect minimum capacity values:

• Analyze multiple 96-well plates per batch

• Analyze multiple assay templates per plate

• Distinguish a minimum of 1 to a maximum of 100 unique xMAP microsphere sets in a

single sample

• Detect and distinguish surface reporter fluorescence emissions at 575 nm on the surface of

1-100 unique xMAP microspheres sets in a single sample

• Sample core: 15-20 µm core at 1 µL/sec. sample inject rate

• Maintain samples at a constant temperature from 35°C to 55°C (95°F to 131°F)

• Automatic sampling from a 96-well plate

• Start sampling from any well position

• Sheath container and waste container hold enough volume to run up to two 96-well plates

between refills

• Microtiter plates with 96 wells must be compatible with the Luminex XYP instrument plate

holder. The following microtiter plate types are compatible with the Luminex XYP

instrument plate holder: flatbottom, conical, round, filter bottom, half plates, overall height

no more than 0.75” (19 mm), any color.

• Microtiter plates with 96 wells must be compatible with Luminex XYP instrument heater

block temperature from 35°C to 55°C (95°F to 131°F) when performing heated assays and

using the heater block.
