UV/VIS spectroscopy is an optical technique allowing measuring the absorption or fluorescent properties of samples. This gives information such as concentration of substances in a sample. When a full spectrum is measured, more advanced analysis techniques can be used, such as multiplex sensing of various labelled substances in one sample. Trinean developed a patent protected, compact multi-channel spectrophotometer that combines a simplified optical setup with important advantages in terms of throughput, sensitivity and stability. The DropSense96® is able to measure the full UV/VIS spectrum of multiple samples simultaneously. It allows measuring the absorption properties of samples and gives information on the concentration levels of substances in a sample, e.g. nucleic acids, proteins or chemical compound absorbance and concentration (µg/µl and pmol/µl). Differential measurements are straightforwardly implemented with this module, which compensates for secondary effects such as drifts and temperature. This results in higher accuracy.
