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
