Industry news

The webinar "Life Science Applications in UV/VIS Spectroscopy" reviews most relevant UV/VIS applications in the Life Science industry is being held on the 30th March 2017.

A particular focus is set on the advantages and practical tips and hints to reliably measure micro volume quantities of DNA, RNA and protein samples in wide concentration ranges on Mettler Toledo's UV5Nano spectrophotometer.

A unique certified reference standard based method is presented, which allows on-site adjustment of the micro-volume pathlengths to secure measurement accuracy and thus reliability. Furthermore, the advantages of the UV5Nano's intuitive user interface and pre-programmed, verified measurement routines are presented with respect to efficient daily measurement execution.

Register now on the Mettler Toledo website for the Life Science applications in UV/VIS spectroscopy webinar.

UV-Visible SpectroscopyUltraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometers are used to measure the interaction of UV and visible light with a sample, including transmission, reflectance & absorbance. The two major instrument classes are single-beam or double-beam spectrophotometers. More specialized equipment includes colorimeters, spectroradiometers and refractometers. Portable and microvolume spectrophotometers are also available. For the modular spectroscopy lab, explore a range of light sources for combination with a spectrograph/spectrometer and optics.

Consequently, the importance of high-quality DNA/RNA extraction and purification equipment cannot be underestimated. Many purification kits are available and are typically optimized for nucleic acid type and source, including plasmid DNA, genomic DNA, mRNA, RNA and viral nucleic acid purification kits. Automated extraction and purification of nucleic acids can be implemented with magnetic bead separator instruments or high-throughput purification workstations.

Nucleic acids can be detected by labeling with colorimetric, fluorescent or radio labels and using in situ hybridization kits to identify specific sequences. Multiple nucleic acids can be detected and quantified at once using RNA / DNA detection beads or RNA / DNA microarrays.
