CD MicroPlate Reader

High Throughput Screening for Chirality

Hinds Instruments facilitates high throughput screening for enantiomerically enriched compounds with the EKKO™ CD MicroPlate Reader.

The CD MicroPlate Reader uses a vertical light path to measure circular dichroism directly from standard wellplates. This eliminates the need to transfer solutions to a cuvette for screening, as well as the need to clean the cuvette between analyses. With no transfers, no cleaning, and no purging, you get better data in less time. The CD MicroPlate Reader truly delivers on the promise of high-throughput screening for Chirality.
