VIS Spectrophotometer, Single beam, 320 - 1100 nm, 2 nm + Software
Rp123.00
VIS spectrophotometer with a single beam optical system, a wavelength range of 320-1100 nm, 2 nm spectral bandwidth, and accompanying software is a common laboratory instrument suitable for various analytical applications. It provides high-resolution data suitable for most quantitative assays in chemistry, biology, and quality control.
Software & Features:
The software accompanying these instruments typically expands their functionality beyond basic photometric measurements:
Expanded Applications: PC software enables advanced functions such as spectral scanning, kinetics analysis, multi-wavelength testing, and DNA/protein analysis.
Data Management: The software allows users to save and manage measurement data directly on a computer, improving workflow efficiency.
User Interface: The software often provides a graphic interface for easier navigation and data interpretation compared to the instrument's built-in LCD display.
Connectivity: Connection to a computer is usually via a USB port
Primary Laboratory Applications:
Quantitative Chemical Analysis: The most common use is determining the concentration of a substance in a solution. Using the software's "Standard Curve" mode, you can measure reagents like iron in water or nitrates in soil.
Enzyme Kinetics: Because it spans 320–1100 nm, it covers the critical 340 nm wavelength used to monitor NADH/NAD+ reactions. The software allows you to track absorbance changes over time to calculate reaction rates.
Purity Testing: The 2 nm resolution is sharp enough to distinguish between similar chemical compounds or detect low-level contaminants that broader bandwidth machines might miss.
Colorimetric Assays: Widely used in the food industry to measure the color intensity of wine, oils, and beverages to ensure batch consistency.
Environmental Monitoring: Essential for measuring Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and total suspended solids in wastewater treatment.
