Before using LanthaScreen® Terbium and Europium assays
Test your plate reader set-up
These technical notes provide a method for verifying that a fluorescent plate reader is able to detect a change in time-resolved fluorescence energy transfer (TR-FRET) signal, confirming proper instrument set-up and a suitable response. The method is independent of any biological reaction or equilibrium and uses reagents that are on-hand for the LanthaScreen® assay.
