Life Science Applications


SCHOTT Fiber Optics provide critical, multi-fiber components to the healthcare industry for high throughput methods of molecular diagnostics. These components are used in genomics, proteomics, drug discovery and micro-fluidic systems.

Design features:

  • Extremely high number of optical elements and reaction sites
  • Interference free separation of reaction sites via micro-wells or capillaries
  • Superior readout of individual optical channels using fiber optic technology
  • Chemically inert materials
  • Low background fluorescence
  • Allows for high sensitivity and repeatability
  • Customized materials and dimensional parameters

SCHOTT's intagliated faceplates provide micro-well arrays for individual optical analysis of fluorescence or luminescence based reactions. Controlled depth and pitch, along with special optically absorbing glasses allow for optimum control and isolation for analysis. A variety of density levels can be achieved to meet specific requirements.



SCHOTT's linear and plate formatted capillary arrays are flow-through designs that are optimized for precision filtration applications, along with photo reactive analysis and genetic testing. Flexibility with key parameters such as capillary inner diameter (ID), aspect ratio, plate thickness and density allow our customers to customize these components to address their system needs.
