The Thermo Scientific NanoDrop 2000 and 2000c are full-spectrum, UV-Vis spectrophotometers used to quanitfy and assess purity of nucleic acids and proteins. As next generation instruments of the NanoDrop™ 1000, NanoDrop 2000 and 2000c do everything that the NanoDrop 1000 does, plus more. The patented sample retention system allows quick, easy analysis of micro-sample volumes as small as 0.5 µl. and fast measurement time of < 5 sconds.
NanoDrop™ 2000c is the NanoDrop 2000 with a built-in cuvette capability. With its unique, patent-pending technology, NanoDrop 2000c combines micro-volume pedestal technology and cuvette capability onto one platform. This combination expands the types of applications and samples that can be run or measured on the instrument (kinetic studies - time or time/temp, cell cultures, volatile samples, and very low concentration samples).
Product Detail
NanoDrop 2000 and 2000c are full spectrum UV-Vis spectrophotometers capable of measuring samples as small as 0.5 µl. Both instruments utilize a patented sample retention system which allows for micro-volume samples to be pipetted on a measurement surface, with no dilutions needed. Measurement time is less than 5 seconds. NanoDrop 2000c combines the micro-volume pedestal technology and cuvette capability onto one platform. This innovative technology provides scientists the flexibility to chose the measuring technique the most appropriate for a particular sample.
NanoDrop 2000 delivers high quality performance with:
Fast measurement time of less than five seconds
New, innovative software that allows you to create custom methods and provides flexible options to design reports and export your data
Improved capability for proteins with low wavelength absorbance, such as peptides at 205 nm
Sample volumes as small as 0.5 µl, which is ideal for precious high concentration samples
Higher concentration measurement capability up to 15,000 ng/µl (dsDNA), which eliminates the need to dilute highly concentrated samples
NanoDrop™ does everything the NanoDrop 2000 does, plus more:
Innovative technology that makes this the only UV-Vis spectrophotometer your lab will ever need
Expanded measurement options for all types of samples - you choose the measuring option right for your sample: cuvette or pedestal
Broader concentration range for measuring very low and very high concentrations
Cuvette capability allows for kinetics (time or time/temperature studies) and cell culture (OD 600) measurements
