The main power key, main power connection and printer connection are located
on the rear of the device (see Section 4, "Installation").
The BioPhotometer from Eppendorf is used for rapid, simple and convenient
measurement of the most common methods in research labs in the fields of molecular
biology and biochemistry.
Cuvettes Standard rectangular cuvettes made of glass or plastic that transmit light at every
measuring wavelength may be inserted into the cuvette shaft. Using the UVette
®
from
Eppendorf, it is now possible to measure nucleic acids in a plastic cuvette.
The height of the measuring window (8.5 mm), as well as the total height (min. 36 mm)
must be taken into consideration when the cuvettes are selected (see chap. 10 "Short
instruction"). To ensure correct, precise results, please ensure that the cuvettes are
clean and that the measuring solution is particle-free. A seal is included with the device
to protect the cuvette shaft from dust when not in use.
