New sample handling options for Biochrom Libra spectrophotometers

15 April 2011; Cambridge, UK: Newly available accessories for the Biochrom Libra range of UV/Visible spectrophotometers now add increased sample handling capabilities to the straightforward operation, scalability and value for money that lie at the heart of this flexible range of instruments. Manufactured by Biochrom (Cambridge, UK), Libra spectrophotometers and peripherals are available through a global network of local distributors, in both split beam and double beam versions.

Whatever your sample requirements, Biochrom has a sample handling option to aid more efficient operation. The 5-position thermostatted cell changer, for example, is fully automatic and designed to speed up analysis by allowing users to automatically measure samples that are at a controlled temperature. With the 5 position thermostatted or 8 position non thermostatted cell changer options connected, the software will allow the user to perform parallel kinetics measurements on either stand alone local control or PC controlled instruments.

  • Automatic 8-Cell Changer

  • Thermostatted Single Cell Holder
