ELISA reader is an instrument that is used to read the fluorescent, chemiluminiscent, or chromogenic response of the ELISA in a 96-well plate. The instrument is designed to fit standard 96-well plates, and will provide quantitative information about the extent of the response for each individual well of the plate.

A microplate reader is a laboratory instrument that is used to measure chemical, biological or physical reactions, properties, and analytes within the well of a microplate. A microplate consists of small wells in which separated reactions take place. In the microplate, these reactions convert the presence of an analyte or the progression of biochemical processes into optical signals. The microplate reader is an optical system that detects these signals and thus quantifies the parameter of interest.

Scientists in the life sciences and pharmaceutical industries (e.g., drug discovery) strive to improve routine laboratory processes and efficiency by using products or instruments able to save time. A microplate reader can handle up to 3456 samples in minutes or even seconds. A plate reader helps to minimize operational time and to save reagent costs, allowing researchers to focus more on data analysis and the generation of actionable insights.

It is controlled by computer to Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA), read 48 well and 96 well microplate, analyses and report, which are widely used in clinical diagnostic laboratories, centers for disease control and prevention, animal & plant quarantine, animal husbandry and veterinary epidemic prevention stations, biotechnological industries, food industries, environmental Science, agricultural scientific research and other academic organizations.
