Key Features:
• Uses trusted Nano Drop microvolume technology — requires only 1–2 µL of sample, conserving precious material.
• Measures purified DNA, RNA and protein concentrations up to 30 Abs and computes A260/A280 and A260/A230 purity ratios.
• Sample‑retention technology: pipette directly onto pedestal, no cuvettes or expensive consumables needed.
• Built‑in touchscreen interface: stand‑alone control (no attached PC required).
• Compact and portable design: suitable for teaching labs, busy QC labs, or budget‑conscious research labs.
• Data export via USB: last 1,000 measurements saved locally, enabling simple workflow integration.
Applications: Ideal for rapid quantification and purity assessment of nucleic acids (DNA/RNA) and proteins in teaching, QC and research laboratory settings.
