Required Laboratory Reagents
• Household bleach
• 70% isopropanol or 70% ethanol
• Mild detergent
• Distilled water
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
