NanoDrop 2000c
Location: Main Tzabam, building C, room 004
Description
The NanoDrop 2000c is the only spectrophotometer that combines microvolume pedestal technology and cuvette capability in a single instrument. The NanoDrop 2000c is a complete UV-Vis solution with pre-configured methods for all common nucleic acid and protein concentration and purity measurements, in both microvolume and cuvette modes
Features/Specifications
- Measurement of 0.5 – 2 µL DNA, RNA, and protein samples
- Measure very low and high concentration samples (0.4 – 15,000 ng/µL dsDNA)
- Cuvette capability allows for kinetics (time or time / temperature studies) and cell culture (OD 600) measurements
- Cuvette position includes temperature control (37° C) and stirring
- Wavelength Range: 190 – 840 nm
Purity Ratios
Nucleic Acid Samples with 260/280 ratios of 1.8-2.2 and 260/230 ratios of 1.8-2.2 are generally considered pure.
Protein samples with a 260/280 ratio of ~0.63 are generally considered pure
