NanoDrop Nucleic Acid Quantitation

RNA, DNA, and protein samples can be measured with high accuracy and reproducibility using just 1ul of sample. The NanoDrop® ND-1000 is a full spectrum (220-750 nm) spectrophotometer that uses a patented sample retention technology that holds the sample in place between the two measurement pedestals by surface tension creating a controlled light path gap. NanoDrop® ND-1000 Applications:

• Nucleic acid concentration and purity (up to 3700 ng/ul for dsDNA)
• Fluorescent dye analysis of labeled microarray samples
• Purified protein analysis (up to 100 mg/ml)
• Protein analysis including standard curves:

1. Bradford Assay
2. BCA Assay
3. Lowry Assay

• Cell density measurements

Measurement Concentration Range:

Lower Limit: 2 ng/ul
Upper Limit: 3700 ng/ul (dsDNA), 3000 ng/ul (RNA), 2400 ng/ul (ssDNA)
