The ESEQuant Flex is a rapid test reader platform, to interpret colorimetric lateral flow tests for different applications. Tests using test specific bands as well as dots or even color change pads can be interpreted qualitatively, semi-quantitatively or quantitatively. The in-built industrial grade camera combined with multi-colored illumination offers a wide range of flexibility for many test formats.

Back to topDeveloper Software Tools
2 powerful tools help you to bring your picture into a final result. The Image Studio Software offers various options to get the best contrast in the picture and to translate your picture data into a 2D peak profile plot.
The Lateral Flow Studio Software will process the peak profile plot into final results, optionally also quantitative using a calibration curve.
The Lateral Flow Studio Software is a unique and comprehensive tool for the development of lateral flow tests to be processedby our ESE QUANT Readers.
This all-in-one, easy to use system provides an accelerated test development process for the next generation of lateral flow assays and reduces development costs.
