Eppendorf BioPhotometer® D30 Reference Filter Set
Eppendorf BioPhotometer® D30 Reference Filter Set - filter set for verifying photometric accuracy and wavelength systematic error (according to NIST®) - 6133928004
About the range
The Eppendorf BioPhotometer D30 is the 3rd generation of Eppendorf spectrophotometers to become an established standard in the life sciences.
Routine pre-defined wavelengths are easily selectable, allowing for quick and simple programming. Users are guided through every step of the assay with short, simple on-screen instructions.
The ultra-stable Xenon flash lamp doesn't require any warm up time and a measurement typically takes 5 seconds. Raw and processed data are clearly presented on the large color screen and can be exported directly from the instrument in a variety of common formats.
Eppendorf disposable UVette® cuvettes enable measurements with as little as 50µl of sample and the Eppendorf µCuvette® G1.0 reduces this further to 1.5µl of sample.
Nucleic acid purification is a major application in molecular laboratories. Purity and homogeneity of the sample are important considerations for subsequent applications. In practice, nucleic acids are purified with the help of commercially available kits which allow for the separation of most cellular components. However, the presence of proteins or other organic components in the eluate may not be entirely eliminated.
When purifying nucleic acid without a kit, additional contamination risks are posed by the chemicals used in the process, e.g. phenol or ethanol from a phenol/chloroform extraction. To ensure minimum contamination of the sample, it is essential to verify its purity by photometric measurements.
The ratios of the absorbance values at the wavelengths 230nm, 260nm and 280nm (260nm / 230nm and 260nm / 280nm), provide a clear picture of the purity of a nucleic acid sample. The following values represent a pure DNA sample:
A260 / A230 ≥ 2.0
A260 / A280 = 1.8 - 2.0

Have you considered your servicing requirements? Much like a car, scientific instruments may need a bit of care to keep them working reliably and at their most accurate.
The Camlab Service Department have over 60 years experience in scientific instrumentation. We have a number of highly qualified internal and field-based service engineers able to perform a variety of jobs including preventative maintenance servicing and calibration.
Camlab can offer yearly service contracts which include two main types of preventative maintenance/calibration services – the back to base service and an engineer visit to your site. These options are can be offered with differing turn around times depending on the instrument type and your requirements along with loan instruments if available.
A typical preventative maintenance service includes the following: Inspection and testing of the unit
Dismantling, cleaning and inspection of the key parts
Correction of minor defects including adjustments if necessary
Reassembly and testing
Take post adjustment / cleaning readings
Supply of calibration certificate
Return of the item to you (back to base services)
