Great instrument, saves time and money.
Application Area:Nucleic acid and protein quantification
"Thermo NanoDrop 8000 is an ideal spectrophotometer that accelerates your research. This spectrophotometer analyzes nucleic acid and protein quantification. This is an ideal instrument for higher throughput workflows, the NanoDrop 8000 instrument can measure multiple samples simultaneously using only 1- 2 μL of the sample. Time-saving and easy to use if you use a multi-channel pipette to dispense samples on a linear array of pedestals, you can easily measure 96 samples in less than six minutes."

Quick and easy way to checking if DNA/RNA extracted from a sample is of good quality.
Application Area:Measure DNA and RNA quality
"Easy to use piece of equipment, particularly as it contains 8 pedestals for quality checks of 8 samples at a time. It’s a quick and easy way of checking if DNA/RNA extracted from a sample is of good quality for downstream analysis."

I highly recommend for high throughput labs.
Application Area:Sample concentration measurement
"The ND-8000 is great for nanodroppping 96 sample deep-well plate. It gives you a lighted guide so you are always aware of your placement within the plate. You are able to save time by completing 8 samples at a time vs. 1. I highly recommend for high throughput labs."

Great instrument, provides excellent results!
Application Area:Measure concentration of protein samples
"When we need to make high concentration measurements of low volume samples, the NanoDrop is the first choice for us. We can rapidly make these measurements with very low sample volumes, and the results are always accurate. Sample loading and clean-up is also very simple and straightforward."

Could not do what we do without it
Application Area:Life Sciences
"We have had several different instruments to read a quick concentration, but the NanoDrop stands out. It is very high throughput, no dilutions, multiple read positions, but also uses very small samples amounts. We have results in line with staining and fluorometric techniques, but with lower cost and faster through put."

Application Area:Analyze concentration of nucleic acids in small amount of liquid
"Very easy to use. It is possible to use 0.5-1 microliter of liquid, which is important if you do extraction from small samples. But you must change the lamp in it quite often."
