<strong>CTL</strong> ImmunoSpot ®<br />
<strong>S5</strong> <strong>Macro</strong> <strong>Analyzer</strong><br />
Faster than ever!<br />
Automatically scan an entire 96-well<br />
plate in as little as 90 seconds!<br />
Intelligent Illumination<br />
Thanks to <strong>CTL</strong>’s SmartLux illumination<br />
technique, the <strong>S5</strong> <strong>Macro</strong> can be used<br />
for a wide range of applications —<br />
scanning ELISPOT assays, microbial<br />
colonies, viral plaques, genotoxic and<br />
colonogenic assays, and more.<br />
The SmartLux system’s combination<br />
of diffuse foreground illumination<br />
and high-intensity backlighting<br />
lets users select the best lighting<br />
configuration for their plate and<br />
assay types. Whatever your<br />
application, SmartLux provides<br />
the results that you need.<br />

Analyze Plates Quickly and Conveniently<br />
Manually counting spots within ELISPOT assays<br />
can be both tedious and time-consuming. Immuno-<br />
Spot ® <strong>Analyzer</strong>s solve this problem by combining<br />
high-speed automation with <strong>CTL</strong>’s revolutionary<br />
ImmunoSpot ® analysis software. The result is<br />
unparalleled ELISPOT accuracy and efficiency.<br />
And that’s not all. Each <strong>S5</strong> <strong>Macro</strong> also comes<br />
with the revolutionary new BioSpot software for<br />
analyzing classic bioassays. With the <strong>S5</strong> <strong>Macro</strong>,<br />
bioassay analysis is now faster and more accurate<br />
than manual methods can ever allow!<br />
Excellence and convenience guaranteed<br />
• <strong>Versatility</strong>: Can be used with 6- to 96-well plates, and a wide range of assay types. As an option,<br />
can also be configured for use with 60 and 100mm Petri dishes.<br />
• Plate type support: Designed to work with white and clear plates with membranes as well as<br />
transparent membrane-less plates<br />
• AutoCentering: Automatically centers each well in both white and clear plates<br />
• AutoLighting: Automatically adjusts the light settings for individual wells for optimal image quality<br />
• FastScan: Fully automated, “walk away” scanning. Scan times as low as 90 seconds,<br />
depending on plate format.<br />
• Accurate well capture: 100% of the well bottom surface captured. Ensures that no spots are lost.<br />
• Direct well sampling: Enables individual sampling of single wells in a plate<br />
• Customized plate type creation: Allows users to customize their plate types and formats in a<br />
user-friendly manner<br />
• Autonaming mode: Automatically names plates as they are scanned<br />
• Data trails: For each well, the plate name and well position, date, time, and operator are recorded.<br />
• GLP support: Readily used in a GLP environment<br />
Each <strong>Analyzer</strong> comes with a full one-year warranty. Warranty extensions are available.<br />
