Comprehensive Absorbance and Fluorescence Capabilities
- Full-spectrum absorbance scanning with 260/280 and 260/230 ratio calculations.
- Long-lasting Xenon lamp coupled with a precision monochromator.
- Adjustable path lengths of 0.05mm, 0.2mm, and 1.0mm.
- Detects up to 15,000ng/µl of dsDNA without requiring dilution.
- Built-in fluorometer for precise quantification of low-concentration nucleic acids.
The NS1020 spectrophotometer excels in both UV-Vis and fluorescence readings, covering a wavelength range from 200 to 800nm. Like the SmartDrop X, the SmartDrop XF includes preset programs for nucleic acids, proteins, and various colorimetric assays. Its patented motorized system allows for three different path lengths, ensuring accurate readings of samples ranging from 0.5 to 2.0µl without the need for dilution.
The integrated fluorometer provides enhanced accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity in quantifying nucleic acids. The blue light channel (460nm) is ideal for detecting dyes like PicoGreen and RiboGreen, as well as GFP and fluorescein, with additional UV, green, and red channels available.
