The UV/Vis spectrometer, available on the PHERAstar FS, Omega Series and SPECTROstar Nano,  captures a full spectrum (220 -1000 nm) per well.

 

In our Technical Application Note 001, we explain in detail DNA Absorbance measurements in microplates, cuvettes and low volume samples  on the SPECTROstar Nano.
