High-speed microvolume
spectrophotometer that provides fast measurements and high throughput
Metuchen,
NJ — Scientists have a faster way to find the purity of DNA, RNA, and proteins.
The new Spex® NanoSNAP™ is a high-speed microvolume spectrophotometer that
provides fast measurements and high throughput. It is dedicated to life
sciences applications but also provides additional methods for self-defined
protocols such as spectrum scanning, multiwavelength, quantitation, and
concentration.
This new
spectrophotometer assesses the purity of DNA, RNA, proteins, and any other type
of assay for samples available in small quantities within seconds, using
as little as 1 μL of sample with no dilution required. It is versatile, with
full wavelength coverage from 190 to 1000 nm. It combines high performance
along with ease of use thanks to its nano hydrophobic coated sample
window, LED viewing light, and the cushioning design of the detection arm.
Reports are saved on the internal memory and can be easily transferred to
USB.
The
integrated 7-inch, color touch screen displays an intuitive graphic interface
that makes navigation between the different measurement modes easy to learn and
quick to use. Multiple measurement modes are available:
- Nucleic acids concentration and
purity: dsDNA, RNA, ssDNA
- Protein A280: BSA, IGG, lysosome,
and custom proteins
- Protein assays: BCA, Bradford,
Modified Lowry for protein standard curve protocols
- OD 600: Optical density at 600
nm and cells/mL calculation for cell cultures
- More assays: Customized protocols using factor, standard curve and
UV-Vis method
