Inserting the cuvette
Standard rectangular glass or plastic cuvettes can be inserted in the cuvette shaft:
• External dimensions: 12.5 mm × 12.5 mm
• Height of light path: 8.5 mm higher than cuvette base
• Total height: min. 36 mm
The cuvettes must be optically transparent for the respective measuring wavelength. For measurements in
the UV range, Eppendorf offers the plastic cuvette UVette which is transparent for wavelengths of 220 nm
and higher and therefore also is suitable for measuring nucleic acids.
