Worthy competitor to the Nanodrop and outperforms it in every area.
Application Area:Measure DNA / Protein concentration.
"A fantastic machine. The DS-11 FX+ is able to quickly measure DNA and protein concentration. Of course, the easy thing to do is to compare this to the ThermoFisher Nanodrop. The Nanodrop may be fast, but the DS-11 FX+ is even faster. The DS-11 FX+ blanks in a couple of seconds and gives sample concentration readings in one or two seconds. It also gives more precise readings (three decimals instead of one when measuring DNA concentration). The DS-11 FX+ also seems to be more accurate and consistent when giving protein concentration readings. Best of all, I have yet to see a broken column error or bubble error. My lab ordered one for everyone to use and now I am choosing this machine every time I need to quickly measure concentrations. One last comment that I have is I like how it comes in fun colors. We have the Fire Red color and it looks like a race car and I think it is fun."

Super fast and accurate. Easy for Android users.
Application Area:OD mRNA and dsDNA
"This product is relatively easy to use. There are a couple of caveats. I like the Android system however I am an Android user. I could see an Apple user finding the interface confusing. It took us a little bit of trial and error to get the thumb drive working. Don't have a DYMO printer or a WIFI printer and setting up a networked printer seemed like a lot of work. The thumb drive export is perfect. It makes a .CSV file that opens easily and is easily manipulated in Excel. One thing to note is that only a FAT32 formatted drive will work. Rather than these couple of things the DS-11 is accurate and super fast two things we were missing in our cuvette spec."

State-of-the-art technology and design worth its money!
Application Area:Measure nucleic acids with fluorometer and photometer, Bradford assay for proteins and OD
"Very sensitive measurement of nucleic acids with the photometer and fluorometer applications. I liked that there are many assays saved as default and I don't have to program a lot. We lovingly call our DS-11 FX+ DeNovix "iDrop", referred to the smooth design. It is easy to use and to find the application you need. And it is the only 3 in 1 device I know. This saved a lot of money."
