Your busy life science laboratory demands performance and flexibility — count on the Thermo Scientific BioMate 3S UV-Visible spectrophotometer to deliver.
With stray light and noise specifications comparable to instruments two or three times the price, the new, compact Thermo Scientific BioMate 3S saves you valuable bench space. The BioMate 3S offers pre-programmed assay methods for nucleic acid and protein concentration as well as cell culture measurements.
Warranty and Service Offering: One year on instrument; lamp is warranted for three years of continuous use.
The BioMate 3S is a highly configurable instrument, adaptable to the needs of the lab. A variety of accessories adds convenience and provides Peltier temperature control, automation, and fiber optic sampling.
Hardware Designed for Performance
-
Improved, 1.8nm spectral bandwidth is compliant with worldwide Pharmacopeia requirements, allowing research quality measurements with routine simplicity
-
Patented optical design provides a compact, high-performance dual-beam system with very few moving parts
-
Xenon lamp gives balanced light over the full instrument wavelength range of 190 to 1100nm
-
Dual-beam optical system includes an internal reference detector and offers significant advantages over a single beam or diode array instruments, including compensation for lamp intensity changes, better performance for kinetics, and better long-term stability
Software Enhanced Flexibility
-
Embedded software provides pre-programmed assays for RNA/DNA concentration or purity estimation, protein concentrations, cell growth, kinetics, or routine measurements
-
For more intense applications, optional application software programs allow more sophisticated data collection, analysis, and reporting
Time-Saving Bioanalysis Software
-
Pre-programmed assays deliver fast, accurate results
-
Built-in assays for nucleic acid concentration and purity estimations, protein concentration, and cell growth at 600nm
