Manufacturer: Thermo Scientific
Model: NanoDrop ND-1000
Description:
The NanoDrop ND-1000 is a full spectrum spectrophotometer that measures 1 ul samples with high accuracy and reproducibility. The
system uses Imm and 0.2 mm pathlength for each measurement cycle to provide a wide dynamic range. The ND-1000 can
measure highly concentrated samples without dilution, which is not possible with many standard cuvette spectrophotometers, as it measures solutions up to 50
times more concentrated solutions. Surface tension technology holds the sample in place without the need for sample containers.
Applications include: Measurement of nucleic acid concentration and purity of nucleic acid samples up to 3700 nh/ul without dilution;
Fluorescent dye labelling density of nucleic acid microarray samples; analysis of purified proteins up to 100 mg/ml; extended spectrum
Measurement and quantification of fluorescent dye-labelled proteins, conjugates and metalloproteins; Bradford assay analysis of
protein, BCA assay analysis of proteins, Lowry assay analysis of proteins, cell density measurements and general UV-Vis
spectrophotometry.
Key features:
- Measures 1 ul samples with high accuracy and reproducibility.
- Measures highly concentrated samples without dilution that are up to 50 times more concentrated than standard cuvette spectrophotometers.
- Utilises surface tension technology for sample retention and fast cleaning.
- Suitable for various applications including nucleic acid concentration, protein analysis, cell density measurements and UV-Vis spectrophotometry.
