The ThunderBolt® is an innovative 2-plate, fully automated, open platform, that can run ELISA and Chemiluminescence (CLIA) assays. This walk-away instrument was designed to simplify your laboratory experience, increase your productivity, and reduce your waste.
We offer multiple ELISA assays validated on the ThunderBolt®, from the following product lines:
The ThunderBolt® ELISA analyzer is smart, compact, LIMS compatible, and highly precise open system that is able to automatically manage all the steps of any plate-based assay from premixing to final data handling. The ThunderBolt®, manufactured by Gold Standard Diagnostics, is available for both ELISA and Chemiluminescent (CLIA) applications.
For GSD ELISA kits, validated protocols have already been arranged and are ready-to-be transferred to the customer’s instrument, while customized methods can be developed and validated following given specifications.
Routine maintenance and support are provided with pre-aligned, transparent plans and premium packages to ensure the service.
