The Mithras LB 940 operates with dedicated optical paths (DOPS) to ensure the best available performance for each reading technology.

The instrument can be supplemented with up to 4 reagent injectors - based on the proven and highly precise and accurate JET injection technology - and a temperature control unit for the microplates. That offers extensive opportunities to the users to perform a huge number of applications including kinase activities, second messengers (e.g. cAMP, IP-One), GPCRs, phagocytosis, calcium flux, cell viability, apoptosis, protein and DNA determinations, reporter gene assays or protein-protein interactions.

The instrument is capable of reading all kinds of microplates from 6 to 1536 well. For increased throughput Mithras LB 940 can be equipped with stacker systems (25, 50 or 100 plate capacity) and can easily be integrated in robotic platforms.

The software is supporting a multitude of functions including standard curves and kinetic data reduction and meets the 21 CFR part 11 requirements.
