Abstract

The present invention provides easy-to-use, adaptable, and convenient solutions to a heretofore unmet need for instruments that can incubate and kinetically monitor assays, especially multiwell assays. In particular, the present invention finds use in monitoring assays contained within various test formats, including, but not limited to microtiter plates, miniaturized test panels (e.g., MICROCARDS.TM.), and petri plates.
