BioDrop Ltd is to launch an exciting new product at ACHEMA 2012
(Hall 4.2 Stand K63; 18-22 June, Frankfurt am Main, Germany). This is the
second product in the BioDrop family, which represents fresh thinking in micro-volume
measurement. Demonstrations of the new addition to the BioDrop range will be given
on the BioDrop stand throughout ACHEMA. The innovative BioDrop micro-volume
cuvette proved extremely popular when it launched in March 2012.
The BioDrop micro-volume cuvette provides a robust, accurate and
affordable approach to low volume spectroscopy. Measurements can be performed
using less than 1 µl of precious samples making it ideal for life scientists
working with DNA, RNA or protein samples. BioDrop's simple but elegant design
has the same dimensions as a conventional cuvette but is manufactured in two
halves that are held together using magnets. The precision machining guarantees
that the path length is accurate to within a few microns. Its simple optical
layout provides very high energy throughput; which ensures that highly accurate
measurements can be made over a wide dynamic range and, unlike alternative
methods, only one path length is required for most experiments.
BioDrop is simple to use - lay it down flat, pull apart the two
halves, pipette the sample onto the window and replace the top half. Then just
load the cuvette into a conventional spectrophotometer and take the
measurement. BioDrop can withstand the knocks and falls commonplace in the
laboratory setting and its ergonomic design makes it easy to handle, even with
wet gloves.
