"It was easy to use, user friendly, and saves lots of time. In the field of neurotransmitters and RNA/DNA where small amounts of samples are used the Nanodrop spectrophotometer is really useful."

Review date: 30 Jan 2013

Application Area: Spectrophotometry
NanoDrop® ND-1000 UV-Vis Spectrophotometer

"On the plus side, this spectrophotometer is very simple to use, can measure as little as 10 ng/microl of DNA (the manufacturer advertise 2 ng/microl, but in my hands the measurements are not to be trusted at concentrations below 10 ng/microl), and does not require prior dilution of the sample (1 microl is needed for the measurement). On the minus side, the sample needs to be of high purity in aqueous solution devoid of surfactant (for example no SDS). In this regard, I have found this spectrophotometer not well suited for protein concentration measurements."

"The single channel nanodrop is quick and easy to use, informing you of the concentration of your sample within just a few seconds, therefore it's possible to determine concentrations of many different samples quickly. When repeating same samples, concentration is usually extremely accurate and therefore a trustworthy and reliable machine."

NanoDrop® ND-1000 UV-Vis Spectrophotometer

"This is a great spectrophotometer, especially for quantifying small amounts of RNA or DNA."

Description

 

The NanoDrop® ND-1000 UV-Vis Spectrophotometer enables highly accurate analyses of 1 ul samples with remarkable reproducibility. The patented sample retention system eliminates the need for cuvettes and capillaries which decreases the measurement cycle time. In addition, the high absorbance capability eliminates the need for most dilutions. You’ll find yourself making fewer dilutions and taking more readings than ever before, essentially becoming a more quantitative laboratory.

The ND-1000 offers many benefits:

Small samples: designed for 1 ul samples
Large dynamic range: measures 2-3700 ng/ul (dsDNA) on a single sample. No need to change out cuvettes or caps.
High absorbance capability: 50 times that of traditional spectrophotometers
No Dilutions for most samples
No extra costs for consumables
Full Spectrum (220-750nm)
10 second measurement time
No cuvettes or capillaries
Sample is recoverable
Small size (size of a tissue box)
Easy set up (plug and play)
Software designed for life sciences.
Free software upgrades
