Fast and easy spectrophotometric quantification: The OD600 DiluPhotometer™ has been especially designed for the spectrophotometrical analysis of bacterial and yeast growth rates and the quantification of proteins at a wavelength nearby 600 nm (e.g. Bradford). Combining OD600 DiluPhotometer™ with Implen\'s DiluCell™ factor 10 or DiluCell™ factor 20 facilitates measurements with low sample volumes of 200 µl and 100 µl, respectively and a virtual sample dilution of either factor 10 or 20.
The instrument is battery operated and can be easily transported for usage in incubation cabinets and under anaerobic conditions. The batteries are recharged automatically by connecting to the mains and last for almost 1 month when fully charged. A 600nm LED source in combination with a fiber optic is used to obtain the optical density measurement. Spillages can be easily wiped from the even surface, and the cell compartment area can be rinsed with, formaldehyde or ethylene oxide to sterilize it.
Includes 2 packages of DC10 and DC20 (Disposable cuvettes)
