Methods
The following methods are available and already preprogrammed ex factory. You can modify
most parameters and save them as a modified method (see Parameter on page 26).
Method group Method
Explanation
Wavelength
DNA
dsDNA
Calculating the concentration of DNA with
evaluation via factor. The methods differ
mainly in the preprogrammed factor.
Measuring wavelength: 260 nm
Secondary wavelengths to check
for purity: 230, 280, 340 nm
ssDNA
OLIGO DNA
RNA
RNA
Analogous to method group DNA.
As method group DNA.
OLIGO RNA
Protein
BCA
Calculating the concentration of proteins after
adding reagent. The methods are
preprogrammed with the evaluation procedure
calibration curve. Number and target
concentration of the standards can be
modified.

OD600
OD600
Turbidity measurement to determine the
bacteria density.

dye 550
DYE 550-dsDNA
For dye-labeled biomolecules: calculating the
concentration of the molecule (nucleic acid or
protein) and the dye in a single measuring
procedure. The frequency of incorporation of
the dye in the biomolecule is also determined.

assay 340
ASSAY 340/1
Calculating the concentration by measuring at
340 nm. The evaluation procedures can be
freely programmed. As a sample the methods
are already preprogrammed with the following
evaluation procedures:
340/1: evaluation via factor
340/2: evaluation via a standard.
340/3: evaluation via calibration curve with 6
standards.
