Safety Precautions
Before using your scanner, read the following safety guides carefully, which
detail the proper operation of the scanner and its accessories to prevent injuries
or damage to users or equipment.
Power Source and AC Power Cord:
• Use a power source only with a power rating specied on the marking label.
• Insert the plug completely into the outlet, as a loose connection may cause
arcing and result in re.
• Place and route the power supply cord such that it is not likely to be walked
on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular
attention to the cord near the power plugs, convenience receptacles, and at
the point where it exits from the outlet.
• When the scanner is left unattended and unused for long periods of time,
unplug it from the wall outlet.
Moving and Storing the Scanner:
• Always lock the scanner when shipping or moving the scanner. Quick stops,
excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the product to overturn
when moving.
• When locking or unlocking the scanner, do not turn the scanner upside
down.
• Do not place the scanner on any slippery, slanted, or unstable surface. The
product may slide or fall, causing serious injury to people as well as serious
damage to the product.
• Do not use this scanner near water. Never spill liquid of any kinds on the
product, or it may result in electric shock or other hazards.
• This scanner should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators,
heat registers, stoves, or other products (including ampliers) that produce
heat.
Service:
• When you need a repair service, unplug the scanner from the power outlet
and consult qualied service personnel.
• When replacement parts are required, use replacement parts that are
specied by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the
original parts.

Knowing about Your Scanner
Microtek PlateLyzer is a professional scanner designed specically for capturing
images of biochip reactions. It utilizes advanced optical, signal, and image
processing technologies, along with the Microtek MiBio-Probe software, to
quickly and accurately acquire image information from the reactions of biochips
with samples and reagents. It generates simple reports that can be exported for
further analysis and retrieval, making it an essential device for sample assaying in
biomedical laboratories and research institutions.
Features
• High optical resolution: Equipped with a high-resolution of CCD that can reach up
to 1632 pixels per inch, the scanner is able to capture ne details in the imaging
of the biochips, helping you analyze and assay samples more accurately.
• Wide optical density range: With a wide optical density range of 0.0D to 3.4D,
the scanner is capable of capturing ne details in both highlight and shadow
areas, as well as accurately representing biochip imaging at different densities,
ensuring the quality of the scanned images.
• High stability: With a coefcient of variation (CV) value of 0.5% and a relative
range (R) value of 1%, this scanner offers excellent performance in terms of
accuracy and consistency of scan results. It is suitable for quantitative analysis.
• Dual scanning: The unique dual scanning technology improves the accuracy and
reliability of sample detection. By subtracting the edge distortion images from
two scans and combining the clear images from the middle region, it provides
more reliable and accurate sample image data.
• Multiple scan modes: Provides scanning of transparent or opaque microplate
and glass slides, and supports 8-bit or 16-bit grayscale and RGB color scanning.
This allows you to perform sample scanning and data analysis based on different
needs, thereby obtaining more accurate test results.
• Fast and efcient: It only takes 10 minutes to warm up before scanning. Each
microplate scanning time is less than 1 minute, allowing you to process a large
number of samples quickly and obtain data rapidly.
• Microtek-patented E.D.I.T.™ technology: This is a patented “glassless” scanning
system, built into the lower bay of Microtek’s dual media scanners, which can
avoid the adverse effects by glass, such as Newton rings and image distortion.
This technology ensures clear and distortion-free images during the scanning
process.
• Microtek MiBio-Probe™ software: It is a professional software that combines
image scanning and analysis capabilities, providing comprehensive control over
scanning and measurement of images. With it, users can scan and measure
multiple samples simultaneously, as well as perform independent multi-target
measurements on individual samples. Additionally, the software has a user-
friendly interface that makes it easy for anyone to use.
