BOECO Life Science Spectrophotometer S-300

The BOECO S-300 life science spectrophotometer allows measurement of nucleic acid concentrations and purity (using ratio function) including protein concentrations. As a high quality spectrophotometer, the S-300 features touch screen operation packaged as a lightweight system with a compact footprint for life science and education related applications.Life Science ProgramsThe S-300 contains onboard functions for the quantification of nucleic acid, including dsDNA, ssDNA, RNA and Oligonucleotides. The purity of the nucleic acid can also be determined with the ratio A260/A280 calculation. Protein concentrations can be measured from a range of colourimetric assays such as Bradford, Lowry, Biuret and BCA. Standard calibration data and curves can also be displayed. Furthermore, proteins can be quantified at 280nm. Bacterial cell density at 600nm can also be measured under the OD600 cell culture optical density function. It can define a bacterial culture in exponential growth phase and at the most appropriate time for harvest or induction. Compact Optics with Full Range ScanningThe single beam optics are compact resulting in signifi cant bench space saving. The long life Hamamatsu Xenon lamp optics system in the S-300 ensures quick and reliable performance. Color Touch Screen OperationThe intuitive color touch screen provides simple access to an extensive range of function. The touch screen is sensitive to stylus or hands (with and without gloves). Icon driven on board software improves accessibility and the quick action keys are another convenience feature. Various measurement modesIn addition to the Lifescience program, the S-300 also features conventional spectrophotometer functions such as single/ multiple wavelength analysis,spectrum scanning, kinetics and concentration measurement. Optional accessories A various selection of optional accessories is available such as flow cell with sipper, temperature control holder, long path length cuvette holder & multiple cell holder to enhance different application needs.Storage and data outputExternal storage with SD card allows data export to PC in compatible text or spreadsheet format. Free downloadable PC Software MasterReport (www.boeco.com) allows data export to PC in compatible text or spreadsheet format for further data processing in the PC. Method and result storage is almost unlimited by exchanging SD card when needed. Printer options are available for direct result printing with graphics. Validation functionTo ensure optimum instrument performance, self diagnosis functions are equipped in GLP/GMP feature for performance validation and auditing.
