SpectraMax QuickDrop Micro-Volume Spectrophotometer
Rapid, accurate DNA, RNA, and protein quantitation in a one-touch, full-spectrum micro-volume absorbance reader.
Nanodrop killer!
Protien quantification / RNA / DNA
Excellent bit of kit. Really quick and accurate readings, and very easy to clean. Screen is big and easy to follow, and has no moving parts which I like. Shared between a few people in the lab, and we are replacing our Nanodrops with these.

The SpectraMax® QuickDrop™ Micro-Volume Absorbance Spectrophotometer addresses the needs of life science researchers who quantify very small amounts of DNA, RNA, oligos, and proteins. It allows you to set up your laboratory with a minimal investment of time, cost, and effort.
The SpectraMax QuickDrop provides you with the flexibility to work with your micro-volume samples in the platform that best suits your research. The built-in sample port allows you to work with volumes as small as 0.5 µL, preserving your precious samples, while the cuvette port lets you expand your work to include larger volume samples.
The SpectraMax QuickDrop is a stand-alone unit with a small footprint and does not require a direct connection to a dedicated computer. The large, high-resolution touch-screen interface offers you the ability to take advantage of pre-configured analysis methods, set up your customized experiment with ease, or export your data to a USB flash drive for additional analysis.
Nucleic Acid Quantitation and Analysis Using the QuickDrop Spectrophotometer
Spectrophotometry is a well-established technique used to quantitate and analyze biological substances. Of these substances, nucleic acids are one of the most routinely measured in life science laboratories. Determining the concentration and purity of these samples is extremely important for many downstream experiments such as PCR, qPCR, sequencing, and DNA microarrays.
