Sense Beta Plus Microplate Reader

The Hidex Sense Beta Plus microplate reader uniquely combines liquid scintillation/beta counting and all common non-radioactive detection technologies. The time resolved liquid scintillation technology reduces background to ensure best possible counting sensitivity.
