Product information
Micro-Volume Photometer for DNA Concentration Determination with Nano Volumes
The Photometer Nano-300 is designed for the fast and precise measurement of minute sample quantities in molecular biology and biochemistry laboratories. With a measurement volume of 0.5 to 2.0 µl, it enables DNA concentration determination without dilution. The wavelength range of 200 to 800 nm covers both UV and visible spectra, ideal for nucleic acid and protein analyses in research and diagnostics.
The xenon flash lamp guarantees immediate measurement readiness without a warm-up phase and a measurement time of 5 seconds. The concentration range for dsDNA extends from 2 to 4,500 ng/µl. In addition, OD600 measurement with cuvette is possible, allowing cell density determination for microbiological applications. Operation is via a 7-inch touchscreen with Android software, with compact dimensions of 210 x 268 x 181 mm and a weight of only 2.8 kg.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Model
For which applications is the Photometer Nano-300 suitable?
The Photometer Nano-300 is used for concentration determination of nucleic acids (DNA, RNA) and proteins. The wavelength range of 200 to 800 nm enables UV absorption measurements as well as OD600 measurements with cuvette for bacterial cell densities in microbiology.
What DNA concentration range can be measured?
The device measures double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) in a concentration range of 2 to 4,500 ng/µl. Due to the low measurement volume of 0.5 to 2.0 µl, even highly concentrated samples can be analyzed directly without prior dilution.
Which laboratories is this micro-volume photometer suitable for?
The Photometer Nano-300 is suitable for molecular biology, biochemistry, and microbiology laboratories in research, diagnostics, and quality control. The compact dimensions (210 x 268 x 181 mm) and low weight (2.8 kg) make it ideal for laboratories with limited space.
What advantages does the xenon flash lamp offer over halogen lamps?
The xenon flash lamp of the Nano-300 requires no warm-up time and enables immediate measurement readiness. It offers a long service life and ensures measurements within 5 seconds – significantly faster than conventional photometers with continuous light sources.
What accessories are needed for OD600 measurements?
A cuvette supported by the device is required for OD600 measurements to determine cell densities. Nano-volume measurements (0.5 - 2.0 µl) are performed cuvette-free directly on the measurement surface. Operation is via the integrated 7-inch touchscreen with Android software.
