Even a child can read the concentration of a DNA solution with Implen NP80

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

DNA concentration measurement

This is a great compact instrument without the need of an external computer. It fits easily in any space, ideal for small labs. It gives constant results which are always accurate.

Smart design and easy to use, better than a NanoDrop.

 

Average Rating 4.7

Application Area:

Testing protein, amino acid and bacterial concentration

We have found this device to be incredibly easy to use and intuitive while offering a wide range of features. Reads are reliable and consistent. The convenience of an on board screen and internal battery (allowing it to be moved to anyone's desk temporarily) can not be over stated. There's a lot of functionality in this little machine and we are very happy with it.

All the students in the lab love it!!

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Kinetics and quantification of small biomolecules, proteins and aptamers

Implen N80 is a very handy spectrophotometer. It's reliable, standalone, with a friendly and logical interface human-machine that works even unplugged to the electric power thanks to the batteries. There's no need to dilute high concentrated samples as the analysis by the nanodrop compartment can adjust the path length. It's also possible to conduct experiments inside a cuvette even at 37ºC. Data can be exported wirelessly or by using a flash drive. Amazing!! I liked it so much that I'm considering to buy a second one.

Great value for the investment and versatile instrument that takes little space.

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Teaching Analytical Chemistry, Forensic Science Research, Biochemistry research

The product is very easy to use and operate. It has both the cuvette option and microdroplet option that works with several organic solvents. The software interface is very intuitive and easy to navigate with emphasis on biochemical and microbiological applications. The droplet mode works with two different type and microvolumes. The cuvette can be used for kinetic study at 37 C. There is even a vortexer for quick mixing. The design was very considerate for the users. The battery power also lasts a long time. The space it takes is minimal.

So easy to use that I can turn my students loose with it

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Determining double-stranded DNA concentration

Nice, repeatable measures with absolutely no fuss and no learning curve. My undergraduate research assistant (a non-biology major) has an extremely easy time with this highly intuitive setup.

Review Date: 12 Dec 2017 | Implen

A great product for easy to use, fast and reliable results.

 

Average Rating 4.3

Application Area:

Analyze DNA (plasmid, DNA fragments and single stranded oligos)

Fast measurement, easy to use, high quality, reproducible results.

Love the new design, easy to use!

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Functional group quantification in organic aerosols

We used to have the NanoPhotometer P300, which worked well for us - but upgrading to the new NP80 was such a great choice. The changes to the instrument have made our analyses much easier and more efficient. Especially the new design for the sample platform has made a huge difference.

Great value and user friendly

 

Average Rating 4.7

Application Area:

Measure concentration of extracted nucleic acids

Great machine! I love the ability to switch between cuvettes and microvolumes, operating it on the touch screen and using a computer to do so. My only issue with the machine was the inability to edit the sample name when mistakes are made but that has been resolved by the new software.

Great, reliable and quick results, thoroughly recommend this device.

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Used in molecular biology applications

This item is easy, quick and reliable to use and gives accurate results 99% of the time, with the remaining 1% being due to human error (quantifying unthawed samples). We have tested it side-by-side with another industry leading device which utilised fluorescence and the results were comparable. The device has a wide variety of applications of which we have used most of these and they are all of a similar quality.

The power and precision of standard spectroscopy and microvolume combined with the convenience of a lightweight portable instrument with a built-in 7” LCD glove compatible touchscreen and flexible unit control options. Built in vortex provides sample uniformity for the highest degree of accuracy with the smallest sample volume (as little as 0.3µL). Illuminated quartz sample surfaces allow for easy sample application. It’s time you expected more out of your spectrophotometer.

A truly all-in-one instrument including an integrated computer with high performance quad core processor, built in battery pack for mobile operation, cuvette and microvolume capabilities as well as a specially designed low vibration vortex.

Implen’s True Path Technology™ delivers accuracy you can trust. The extensive dynamic range with two precisely defined path lengths eliminates pathlength drift. The only spectrophotometer on the market with a sealed mechanical setup; the NanoPhotometer® has two fixed anchor points that are not changing over the lifetime of the instrument. Scratch resistant 100% quartz sample surfaces remove the need for reconditioning. No reconditioning, no recalibration, no maintenance necessary, Implen guarantees lifetime accuracy providing peace of mind for our researchers!

  • Proteins: protein quantification using direct A280 measurements, select from pre-programmed dye labels as well as create custom dye methods to determine degree of labeling of dye conjugated proteins
  • Protein Assays: quantify proteins using colorimetric assays including the BCA, Bradford, Lowry, and Biuret assays
  • Kinetics: measurement of change in absorbance as a function of time at fixed wavelength, application available in the heated cuvette port as well as for microvolume measurements
  • OD600: used to determine the absorbance at 600 nm
  • Wavelength: measurement of simple absorbance (Abs) or transmission (%T) at a single user defined wavelength
  • Wavescan: records the absorption (Abs) or transmission (%T) spectrum for the range between two user defined wavelengths
  • Absorbance Ratio: measure the ratio between two user defined wavelengths
  • Concentration: determines the concentration of samples from a single wavelength absorbance reading
