Photometer Nano-500, Measurement volume 0.5 - 2.0 µl, Fluorescence blue

The Nano-500 is designed for the quantification of dsDNA (2 - 4,500 ng/µl), RNA, and proteins. With the wavelength range of 200 - 800 nm, UV absorption measurements can be performed. Fluorescence measurement (blue, 460 ±20 nm excitation) enables sensitive DNA quantification down to 0.5 pg/µl. Additionally, OD600 measurement with cuvette is possible for bacterial growth studies.

The photometer operates with a micro measurement volume of only 0.5 - 2.0 µl, enabling sample-sparing analyses with minimal material consumption. Measurement is completed within 3 to 5 seconds. The xenon flash lamp requires no warm-up time, so measurements can begin immediately after power-on.

The device is ideal for molecular biology laboratories, genetics departments, biochemistry labs, and research institutions that regularly quantify nucleic acids. With the combination of UV absorption and fluorescence measurement as well as the OD600 function, it covers the typical requirements in life science laboratories. The compact dimensions (208 x 320 x 186 mm) and low weight (3.6 kg) allow for flexible placement.

Unlike conventional photometers, the Nano-500 combines three measurement modes: UV-Vis absorption measurement (200 - 800 nm), fluorescence measurement (blue), and OD600 with cuvette. The micro measurement volume of 0.5 - 2.0 µl conserves valuable samples. The xenon flash lamp offers instant measurement readiness without warm-up time, while the 7-inch touchscreen with Android software ensures modern ease of use.

The Nano-500 is controlled via a 7-inch touchscreen with Android software and requires a standard power supply. The xenon flash lamp offers a long service life and minimizes maintenance effort. For OD600 measurements, a cuvette is required (not included in the scope of delivery). The device has compact dimensions of 208 x 320 x 186 mm and weighs 3.6 kg. It is supplied with a 12-month warranty.
