Micro-Volume UV-Vis Spectrophotometry
Thermo Scientific ND-8000
Description
NanoDrop Micro-Volume UV-Vis Spectrophotometer allows rapid (<20 seconds) measurements of micro-volume samples (1 µL) with a wavelength range of 220–750 nm and spectral resolution ≤3 nm. Absorbance accuracy is ±3% at 0.74 Abs (350 nm), with a detection limit of 2.5 ng/µL for dsDNA and 0.15 mg/mL for BSA. The instrument supports up to 8 samples and enables fast, reliable analysis for DNA, RNA, protein, and more.
Applications
- DNA concentration and purity analysis (A260/A280, A260/A230)
- RNA concentration and purity analysis
- Protein concentration measurement (A280 or Bradford/BCA methods)
- Oligonucleotide quantification
- Lysate or cell extract analysis
- Tagged protein analysis (e.g., GFP, mCherry absorbance)
