What is the proper way of cleaning the NanoDrop plate?
What is the proper way of cleaning the NanoDrop plate?
Apply 5 ul of dH20 solution to the bottom pedestal. Lower the upper pedestal arm to form a liquid column; let it sit for approximately 2-3 minutes. Wipe away the water from both the upper and lower pedestals with a clean lab wipe.
How do you recondition NanoDrop?
- Thermo Fisher Scientific – NanoDrop products.
- Apply 3-5 ul of dH20 on to the bottom pedestal.
- Use the instrument pedestal reconditioning kit, PR-1, as a rapid means of reconditioning the pedestals when the surface properties have been compromised and liquid columns break during measurement.
- Properly Conditioned.
What is the purpose of the NanoDrop 2000 spectrophotometer?
Thermo Scientific NanoDrop 2000 and 2000c are full-spectrum, UV-Vis spectrophotometers used to quantify and assess purity of DNA, RNA, Protein and more. The NanoDrop 2000 and 2000c are the only microvolume spectrophotometers with patented sample retention technology that measure samples volumes as small as 0.5µL. .

Can NanoDrop measure bacteria?
Using a spectrophotometer such as a Thermo Scientific NanoDrop 2000c to monitor growth of bacterial cultures by measuring the optical density at 600 nm (OD600) is a central technique in microbiology. Optical density measurements, however, often contain very little true chemical absorbance.
How accurate is a NanoDrop?
Published reproducibility for the NanoDrop 2000c is a standard deviation of 0.1 mg/mL for BSA concentrations less than 10 mg/mL. Above 10 mg/mL BSA, reproducibility is typically less than a CV of 2 %.
How does the NanoDrop work?
The NanoDrop microvolume sample retention system (Thermo Scientific NanoDrop Products) functions by combining fiber optic technology and natural surface tension properties to capture and retain minute amounts of sample independent of traditional containment apparatus such as cuvettes or capillaries.
Can we use NanoDrop for protein concentration?
The NanoDrop 2000c determines the optimal path length automatically (1 mm to 0.05 mm), providing the most extensive range of possible protein concentration measurements without dilutions. By shortening the path length, higher concentrations of protein can be measured.
What size cuvettes can I use with the NanoDrop 2000C?
Cuvette Measurements The NanoDrop 2000c will accept 10 mm cuvettes up to 48 mm tall. When measuring samples using micro, semi- micro, or ultra-micro cuvettes, we recommend using masked cuvettes. Masked cuvettes ensure that all light hitting the detector has passed through the sample.
What is NanoDrop 2000/2000c spectrophotometer technology?
This enables the measurement of very highly concentrated samples without the need for dilutions. Using this technology, the full spectrum (190 – 840 nm) NanoDrop 2000/2000c Spectrophotometers have the capability to measure sample concentration up to 200 times more concentrated than samples measured using the standard cuvette.
What is the NanoDrop 2000C sample retention system?
The NanoDrop 2000c model offers the convenience of both the NanoDrop patented sample retention technology and a traditional cuvette for sample measurements. The sample retention system employs surface tension to hold the sample in place between two optical fibers.
