VWR® Nano Spectrophotometers, Microvolume UV-Vis
Product Details
Microvolume UV-Vis quantification for fast DNA, RNA, and protein analysis using pedestal and cuvette sampling in routine molecular biology workflows.
- Auto-adjusting pathlength supports accurate measurements across low- and high-concentration samples
- Pedestal and cuvette sampling expand flexibility for quantification and OD 600 checks
- Rapid 260/280 and 260/230 absorbance ratio calculations simplify nucleic acid purity review during routine workflows
- Built-in printer and USB output streamline recordkeeping and data transfer
- Extended-life xenon lamp and monochromator enable full spectral scans without extra accessories
Designed for molecular biology research and routine applications, this spectrophotometer helps labs quantify and assess sample purity from very small sample volumes so more material can remain available for downstream work. It is well suited for everyday DNA, RNA, and protein checks where speed and consistency matter.
Its dual-format design gives users a practical choice between pedestal measurements for microvolume samples and cuvette-based readings for workflows requiring optical density measurement. This added flexibility supports labs moving between concentrated nucleic acid samples, protein analysis, and culture-related measurements using a single benchtop instrument.
Compared with basic single-mode readers, this platform combines microvolume analysis, full-spectrum measurement, and routine bench documentation in one system. Results can be reviewed quickly and then printed, saved, or exported to help keep records aligned with day-to-day lab workflows.
