acquiring sample, running system calibrators, running system
controls, and warming up the instrument, the system resets the
four-hour internal clock.

Accuracy and Precision

•

Sample uptake volume: ± 5%

•

Classification of xMAP microspheres: > 80%

•

Misclassification of xMAP microspheres:

≤ 2% - may vary by

xMAP microsphere product lines. Refer to the specific product
information sheet for further details.

•

Temperature control: 0°C to + 2°C of target

•

Internal sample carry over: < 0.9%

•

Soluble background fluorescence emission at 575 nm
automatically subtracted from fluorescence intensity values

Sensitivity

•

Detect 1000 fluorochromes phycoerythrin (PE) per xMAP
microsphere

•

Reporter channel dynamic range: 3.5 decades of detection

Capacity

The specifications below reflect minimum capacity values:

•

10 GB hard drive

•

100 MB read/write CD ROM

•

Analyze multiple 96-well plates per batch

•

Analyze multiple assay templates per plate

•

Distinguish a minimum of 1 to a maximum of 100 unique xMAP
microsphere sets in a single sample

•

Detect and distinguish surface reporter fluorescence emissions at
575 nm on the surface of 1-100 unique xMAP microspheres sets
in a single sample

•

Sample core: 15-20 µm core at 1 µL/sec. sample inject rate

•

Maintain samples at a constant temperature from 35°C to 55°C
(95°F to 131°F)

•

Automatic sampling from a 96-well plate

•

Start sampling from any well position

•

Sheath container and waste container hold enough volume to run
up to two 96-well plates between refills

•

Microtiter plates with 96 wells must be compatible with the
Luminex XYP instrument plate holder. The following microtiter
plate types are compatible with the Luminex XYP instrument
plate holder: flatbottom, conical, round, filter bottom, half plates
[overall height no more than 0.75” (19 mm)], any color

•

Microtiter plates with 96 wells must be compatible with
Luminex XYP instrument heater block temperature from 35°C to
