Assignee: LIFE TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION
Field: Measurement (Instruments)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 0:
1. A control system, the system comprising:
a computing device, wherein the computing device is designed and configured to:
set a desired wavelength falling within the wavelength range of 380 nm to 750 nm for absorbance measurements, the desired wavelength corresponding to a measurement of color;
illuminate the samples using electromagnetic radiation having a bandwidth of at most 20 nm around the set wavelength;
measure radiant flux transmitted through each sample to determine a set of measured radiant flux values;
determine an absorbance value for each sample as a function of the measured radiant flux values; and
visualize the absorbance values on a display as a matrix comprising a plurality of cells, wherein each cell corresponds to a well of the microplate,
wherein the set wavelength is used as an input for determining the color of the cells, and
wherein the determined absorbance value of each sample is used as an input for determining the transparency of the respective cell on the display.
