The Accuris SmartDrop™ series of nano spectrophotometers provides quick and easy quantification of small samples. Utilizing a small sample volume eliminates the need for dilutions, providing more accurate results.

A full color, 7” touchscreen with icon-driven menus and preprogrammed protocols gets users up and running quickly. No external computer is required. Each unit features a quartz pedestal onto which a drop of sample is placed. The arm is lowered and the drop is stretched into a liquid column of specificed length for spectral analysis. DNA, RNA and protein concentrations and purity numbers are displayed in a matter of seconds.

SmartDrop L

  • Ideal for basic DNA/RNA/protein quantification and purity
  • Affordable LED and silicon detector technology
  • Fixed 0.5mm path length, detect up to 2500ng/µl of dsDNA

SmartDrop L is the affordable choice for laboratories needing to determine nucleic acid and protein concentrations and purity of samples. The LED light source and silicon photocell sensor provide readings at 260 and 280nm. Samples from 1.0 to 2.0µl are loaded directly on the pedestal. Results are provided in about 5 seconds. The software automatically
calculates and displays 260/280 ratios.

SmartDrop X

  • Full-spectrum absorbance scans from 200 to 800nm
  • Quickly calculates and displays 260/280 and 260/230 ratios
  • Long-life Xenon lamp with precision monochromator
  • Auto-ranging path lengths of 0.2mm and 1.0mm
  • Detect up to 4,500 ng/µl of dsDNA without dilution

SmartDrop XF – Spectrophotometer + Fluorometer

  • Full-spectrum absorbance scanning and calculations of
    260/280 and 260/230 ratios
  • Long-life Xenon lamp with precision monochromator
  • Auto-ranging path lengths of 0.05mm, 0.2mm and
    1.0mm
  • Detect up to 15,000ng/µl of dsDNA without dilution
  • Integrated fluorometer for sensitive quantitation of low
    concentration nucleic acids

Accuris DNA Quantification Kits

High Sensitivity dsDNA Assay Kit
The Accuris High Sensitivity Kit provides an accurate method to quantify low concentration dsDNA samples.  The assay kit is designed to be accurate for initial DNA sample concentrations of 0.005–120 ng/µl, providing a detection range of 0.1–120 ng.

Broad Range dsDNA Assay Kit
The Accuris Broad Range Kit provides an accurate method to quantify dsDNA samples that have a broad concentration range starting at 0.2 ng/µL. The assay kit is designed to be accurate for initial DNA sample concentrations of 0.2 to 2,000 ng/µL, providing a detection range of 4−2,000 ng.
