FLEXMAP - Model 3D -High-Speed, Highly-Multiplexed Assays for Breakthrough Research
FromDiasorin
FLEXMAP 3D is Luminex’s most advanced and versatile multiplexing platform. Fast read time, compatibility with both 96- and 384-well plates, and ease of integration with front-end automation systems make the FLEXMAP 3D® the platform of choice for high throughput applications. The platform uses both magnetic and non-magnetic microspheres and is capable of simultaneously measuring up to 500 genes or proteins from a small sample. Automated start-up, shut-down, and maintenance routines make the FLEXMAP 3D easy to use and maintain.

electrical safety
- Multiplexing: Up to 500 analytes in a single sample
- Dynamic Range (Typical): ≥4.5 logs
- Read Time: 96-well plate in ~20 min (up to 144,000 tests/hour); 384-well plate in ~75 min (up to 153,600 tests/hour)
- Daily Start-Up/Shut-Down: ~30 min
- Higher Throughput: Dual sample fluidics paths and increased sample injection speed result in a faster sampling rate. The FLEXMAP 3D System can process 384 samples and generate up to 144,000 data points in just over an hour.
- High Plexing Capability: The FLEXMAP 3D is compatible with magnetic and non-magnetic microspheres and can discriminate up to 500 different microsphere sets. The platform offers a large menu of commercial kits and reagents to develop custom assays for a wide variety of applications including nucleic acid assays, immunoassays, receptor ligand assays, and enzymatic assays.
- Automation/LIS Compatibility: xPONENT® Software controls the FLEXMAP 3D System and offers interfacing options for Laboratory Information Systems (LIS) and front-end automation platforms. The system accommodates 96 and 384-well plate formats for enhanced sample flexibility and increased throughput.
- Reliability: The FLEXMAP 3D System has multiple features allowing walk away start-up, shut-down, and maintenance operations, and greatly enhances usability for High Throughput Screening (HTS) applications.
