To Measure Phosphorescence Decays 

One can measure phosphorescence decays as short as 400 nanoseconds to as long as seconds. Correction is particularly important when using a pulsed source – the proprietary PMT based True-Correction™ excitation wavelength and intensity correction ensures that you always get the most accurate answer.

For Great Sensitivity

PTI offers the most sensitive fluorimeter system that uses a pulsed light source for excitation. Nevertheless it is not as sensitive as our QuantaMaster™ 40 fluorescence system, which uses a continuous light source – but as we have said before if you need to measure phosphorescence decays you don’t have a choice. Don’t despair – you can make your QuantaMaster™ 30 into the most sensitive fluorometer on the planet by simply adding the Q-5B system enhancement. This option adds the continuous excitation source to your system.

For Ultimate in Versatility – Obsolescence Proof

The open architecture design allows for the ultimate in flexibility. You can add various excitation sources – including lasers and LED’s, you can expend the system to measure fluorescence lifetimes, polarization, temperature ramping – in fact you can add virtually anything that you need for fluorescence and phosphorescence type measurements. While everything wears out - the QuantaMaster™ 30 can be upgraded and updated.

To measure LRET or make other lanthanides measurements

The QuantaMaster™ 30 system equipped with a pulsed lamp and a gated detector is invaluable in boosting the detection sensitivity of otherwise almost undetectable europium emission obscured by fluorescence (trace at delay = 0) from organic ligand. By placing the detection gate 200 microseconds away from the excitation pulse, a clean spectrum of europium ion is observed (trace at delay = 200 μs ), while the impurity fluorescence is completely suppressed.
