The Ultrospec™ 3100 pro UV/Visible spectrophotometer is the ideal instrument for the modern, yet demanding, life science laboratory where bench space is at a premium. It is available in a range of colours - classic, yellow, plum, apple - and has both exciting styling and design (registered design protection applied for) that place   
it at the forefront of its class. In addition, it uses xenon lamp technology so annual running costs are minimized.    
   
The instrument has a high-resolution display and an extensive range of built-in applications software that is enhanced by full graphics and scaling capabilities coupled with data manipulation. Reflecting the needs of current molecular biology research, there are stored protocols for nucleic acid quantification/ characterization (DNA, RNA, cDNA, oligonucleotide, theoretical Tm calculation) and protein determination (Bradford, Biuret, Lowry, BCA and UV methods) as well as basic modes. The common laboratory applications of wavelength scanning,  multi- wavelength equation, reaction kinetics, standard curve and substrate concentration are also present.    
   
Fifty user definable methods can be saved and with a range of output modes - direct to Microsoft Excel, control by SWIFT II software and output to a range of printers. With these features and self-test diagnostics for GLP purposes, the Ultrospec 3100 pro is an excellent addition to the laboratory bench.
