Sample and Information Management

Nel 1950, Eppendorf ha introdotto il suo primo fotometro sul mercato. L'attuale gamma dimostra la nostra competenza nell'ambito della fotometria e vi permette di selezionare combinazioni di dispositivi e accessori da una grande varietà di prodotti. La linea di prodotti Eppendorf Detection permette analisi molecolari semplici ed efficienti tra i quali la quantificazione degli acidi nucleici e delle proteine, gli studi di misurazione cinetica, i dosaggi ELISA, le misurazioni della fluorescenza. L'apparecchio PlateReader AF2200 è in grado anche di analizzare i saggi di dosaggi cellulari. Inoltre, le misurazioni microvolume sono possibili in tutti i nostri strumenti di rilevamento con la µCuvette G1.0 o la µPlate G0.5.

When do I need what?

Depending on the sample concentration,
different photometric approaches are
recommended:

Extinction

Quick and easy direct measurement method Harmless and stable, since no chemicals have to be used Provides information about sample purity

Provides information about sample purity

UV-Vis Samples

Quantification of nucleic acids can be performed by measuring absorbance at a wavelength of 260 nm in a UV-Vis(spectro-)photometer. The _OD260 value is used to calculate the concentration, using the sample specific factor, of the nucleic acid sample.

OD₂₆₀ = 1^* : 50 μg/ mL double strand DNA
40 μg/ mL RNA
33 μg/ mL single strand DNA

Fluorescence Samples

UV-based quantification of nucleic acids has limits which can be bypassed by using fluorescence detection, qPCR, or chip-based capillary electrophoresis systems.

The amount of nucleic acid is calculated based on the intensity of the fluorescent signal. For excitation and detection, fluorimeter or a photometer with a fluorescence module is required.

Nucleic acids quantification via fluorescence is based on fluorescent dyes which bind to the nucleic acids. Only the complex consisting of nucleic acid and dye is excited by light of a specific wavelength (dependent on the dye) and will subsequently emit light of a slightly longer wavelength.

Kinetic Process

The enzymatic activity measurements quite often need to be performed at a specific temperature. For reducing measurement variations, the cuvette shaft of the spectro meter needs to be temperature-controlled. Enzyme activity [U/mg] can be done time-consuming by hand or by fast calculation of the spectrometer. Software based »linear regression« is useful for the accurate definition of the linear range of a kinetic measurement.

Transmission Samples

Transmission is calculated from the ratio of I (light leaving the cuvette) and I0 (light entering the cuvette) and expressed in percent as %T.

As an alternative data output to absorbance or concentration, the pre-programmed method »Transmission« of BioPhotometer D30 and BioSpectrometers provides you the percentage transmission of the sample. When using the »Transmission« method, the light trans mittance of the sample is given as T% instead of the absorbance, which is directly used to calculate the sample concentration. These raw data can also be used as a basis for further own calculations.

T = I/I0
%T = I/I0 * 100
The photometer automatically calculates the absorbance
(A) from the measured transmission (T).
A = -log10T = lg(I0/I)

Annoyed by uncomfortable handling?

Ergonomics is far beyond the »ergonomically designed chair«. Eppendorf started to optimize the laboratory devices regarding ergonomics already in the early 1970s.In 2003, we started the PhysioCare Concept, focusing on ergonomic liquid handling devices like our pipettes. Nowadays, the Eppendorf PhysioCare Concept is broaden up to include further laboratory products as a holistic solution to harmonize the workflow in your laboratory with your health and well-being, e.g. for the Eppendorf BioSpectrometer:

Guided software for easy handling
Clear indications at cuvette shaft for convenient handling
Direct keys for convenient handling
Small footprint to enable position in direct arm reach at your bench
Standardized »user-interface concept« for intuitive handling of devices

One of the First Photometers for Labs

You might got your basic training in the laboratory with one of ours… Based on nearly 70 years of photometry experience, Eppendorf has developed many different photometers over the time.

Can You Trust Your Results? Verification of Spectrophotometers

Many laboratories are subject to regulatory requirements that e.g. are prescribed by Quality Management Systems. These laboratories are thus obligated to test work equipment and analysis instruments, including (spectro-) photometers, on a regular basis. What if such regulations do not apply to your lab? In this case, testing is not absolutely necessary, as it is not mandatory – but does that mean it is not important?
