Fluorometer: What is it used for?

This apparatus is an optical device, which is used in laboratories to observe and measure the fluorescent quality in biological or mineral samples; this equipment has characteristics that can be measured sensitivity to specific light wavelengths by using filters and depending on what is being studied.

However, these fluorescence analyzes are used to identify the presence and amount of some specific molecules present in a sample, some advanced fluorometers allow to detect very low concentrations of fluorescent molecules and there the importance of equipment in biology laboratories and plant ecophysiology investigations. 

To use the fluorometer

Depending on the type of fluorimeter, we can establish that some may be highly sensitive, which is advantageous for use in precision scientific research. These equipment use optical filters that are relatively cheap and easy to change, so filter fluorimeters are commonly used in experimental applications that need to repeatedly measure different compounds.

On the other hand, we have spectrofluorometers that are mainly used in investigations of photochemistry of biological systems, that is, to know the presence of fluorescent chlorophyll, are used in the study of kinetics of reactions, lipid-protein interactions. For the determination of water quality by measuring organic matter and for establishing the authenticity of wines; To perform luminescence studies of Leds and photoluminescence of solar cells, finally used in investigations of properties of Graphene.

Characteristics of the KALSTEIN fluorometer

There are a wide variety of manufacturers on the market, but only we offer you a product that guarantees the best features of the market and at a competitive price, if you want to know more about this team visit our link https://kalstein.net/en/category-product/laboratory-line/fluorometer/ and you can find the following features:

Applications of the KALSTEIN fluorometer 

This is an advanced equipment designed with high quality materials, covering the highest requirements in areas such as chemistry, biochemistry, medicine and environmental monitoring, its applications go a little more, being able to measure the absorbance of all the ingredients such as DNA, RNA, among others, of the sample at 260 nm.

Other applications that may prove general but our team intensifies some conditions of the fluorometers, such as measuring the fluorescence intensity of the fluorescent reagent, which is combined with the target molecule to read the concentration of the sample; This means that the reading is lower than the Nano series products, but it is much more accurate, another advantage is that our fluorometro is able to measure 0.5 pg/ul which favors the measurement of DNA concentration.
