2.1 Features
The Eppendorf UVette
®
is a plastic cuvette for single use.
•
For measuring at wavelengths of 220 nm to 1 600 nm.
•
For volumes of 50 μL or more.
•
The funnel-shaped design prevents a capillary effect: liquid remains in the center of
the measuring window, even with small volumes.
•
4 optical surfaces
•
2 optical path lengths in one cuvette: 2 mm and 10 mm.
The 10 mm optical path length is marked by an arrow. Rotating the cuvette 90° allows
you to select between a layer thickness of 10 mm or 2 mm.
