Your Trusted Source for Used Lab Equipment

The Thermo Scientific NanoDrop 2000C Spectrophotometer is designed for sampling with high accuracy and reproducibility. Surface tension allows the NanoDrop to sample between two optical fibers at the same time. The patented sample retention system of the NanoDrop allows a sample to be pipetted directly onto an optical measurement surface. Once the measurement is complete, the surfaces are simply wiped with a lint-free lab wipe. It has advanced micro-volume pedestal technology.

Features:

• Dual modes: choose cuvette or pedestal
• Broader concentration range for measuring very low or very high concentrations
• Cuvette capability allows for kinetics (time or time/temperature studies) and cell culture (OD 600) measurements
