Eppendorf North America, Inc. Hauppauge, NY, November 2011. Eppendorf is proud to announce the new Eppendorf BioSpectrometer® which combines accuracy and sensitivity with outstanding flexibility in a small robust instrument. The Eppendorf BioSpectrometer extends our current detection product line by offering scanning capabilities allowing routine and complex methods such as measuring cytotoxicity, proteins, fluorescent dyes and more!

The BioSpectrometer kinetic model features a temperature-controlled cuvette shaft that requires no additional accessories in order to study enzyme or substrate kinetics. Scanning spectrum as well as individual wavelength measurements can be monitored in the spectral range of 200 nm to 830 nm. Pre-programmed methods facilitate quick start applications and prevent errors, while a USB port is provided for simple data transfer. No PC is necessary to operate the system and integrated data processing options enable basic data processing directly on the device. Apart from standard cuvettes such as the Eppendorf UVette, the BioSpectrometer can also accommodate micro volume cuvettes.
