Hall A3 / booth 404
17 April 2012; Cambridge,UK: A previously awkward and often expensive technique, microvolume spectroscopy, is now both simpler and more affordable. Visitors to the Biochrom (Cambridge, UK) stand at Analytica 2012 (Hall A3/booth 404, April 17-20, Munich) will have the opportunity to investigate the benefits of combining a Biochrom Libra double beam UV/Visible spectrophotometer with the revolutionary BioDrop microvolume cuvette (BioDrop Ltd., Cambridge, UK). Biochrom’s Analytica stand will also preview a new spectrophotometer which has been designed specifically to work with BioDrop.
“The Biochrom Libra’s easy-to-use Resolution software is the first to be fully compatible with the elegant new BioDrop cuvette. Users can rapidly set their system up to take advantage of this robust, accurate and affordable approach to microvolume spectroscopy,” said Jo Butlin, sales and marketing director at Biochrom. Simply selecting the BioDrop path length from the Resolution drop down menu sets the Libra instrument up for operation with the microvolume cuvette. The BioDrop presets avoid the need for manual adjustments of path length, dilution factors or any other measurement parameter. This ensures greater precision and accuracy, and leaves the operator free to carry out other tasks. Different path lengths offer different measurement performance and the user has the flexibility to select a lower path length if measuring highly concentrated samples, optimising accuracy.
Manufactured in two magnetic halves, BioDrop is ideal for use by life scientists needing to measure DNA, RNA or protein by direct UV methods. In combination with Biochrom’s range of UV/Visible spectrophotometers, the BioDrop cuvette makes accurate microvolume spectroscopy of sample volumes less than 1µl accessible to any laboratory.
