Automated enzyme assay
Meet the Gallery Enzyme Master - the first automated enzyme analyzer designed specifically for enzyme assay applications. Combining robust hardware and new custom designed software, this best-in-class solution delivers fully-automated incubation settings, reagent additions, and precise measurement calculations—all with a touch of a button. This enzyme analyzer offers the smartest (and fastest) way yet to streamline method development and deliver reliable results from enzyme assay analysis.
Enzyme assays are laboratory methods that measure the rate of enzyme reactions (enzyme activity). These assays also help to develop enzyme discovery and study enzyme catalytic mechanisms. Enzyme activity and enzyme assay are vital for the study of enzyme kinetics and enzyme inhibition. Usually the assay is carried out by determining the enzyme activity with and without activation by an added coenzyme. The activity can be monitored by measuring changes in concentration of substrates or products during the reaction.

Gallery Enzyme Master enzyme analyzer customer testimonials
Sofie Wendel, Senior Department Manager, Assay Technology & Analytics at Novozymes A/S
“Our enzyme assays were developed and standardized based on legacy discrete analyzers. Our continued collaboration with Thermo Scientific resulted in improved and customized software for enzyme assays, and we replaced all the legacy discrete analyzers with the new Gallery Enzyme Master enzyme analyzers. The Gallery Enzyme Master delivers an efficient solution to the challenges of enzyme analysis, providing a tight temperature control, generating robust results. A major advantage is that the Gallery Enzyme Master makes transferability across the globe easier by enabling distribution from a central method development lab.”
Erica Fritse, Global QC Governance Manager at DSM
“When needing an alternative for our aging population of Discrete Analyzers, we decided to replace it with the new Thermo Scientific Gallery Plus. The Gallery Enzyme Master ensures that we can continue with temperature-controlled measurement of the activity of our enzymes. We use the Gallery Enzyme Master for R&D development and QC release on one easy-to-use, automated system. A big advantage is the central, global management of the measuring protocols. This makes assurance of the use of the latest updated methods easier than ever before.”
