Easy to use, with excellent data reporting for Biologics.
Estimation of protein and nucleic acid concentrations
A simple and versatile equipment for quantifying proteins, peptides, and nucleic acids in a high throughput format. Customer service is excellent and they are ready to help with the purchase of consumables and other related accessories. I consider lunatics to be an instrument purchase in money- well-spent category.

Great instrument to have!
Protein characterisation
Easy to use with small aliquots required for each sample. however, difficult to visualise the numbers and letters on the lunatic plate which can be further improved.

Get your quant on.
Lunatic, our next-gen UV/Vis spectrophotometer, makes batch quantification of protein, DNA and RNA a no-brainer. All you need is 2 μL and 10 minutes to measure up to 96 samples. Run them straight-up, even at high concentrations, without ever diluting. Lunatic gets biologics and genomics UV/Vis quantification on the money every time. Just drop, load and read.

Cruise through genomics quantification and QC with Lunatic
Tuesday, February 24 at 16:00 GMT | 17:00 CET | 11:00 EST | 08:00 PST
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has opened new frontiers in disease discovery, diagnosis, and treatment, but biobanking and reliable sequencing demands consistent nucleic acid concentrations and quality. Fluorescent dye-based quantification is costly, time consuming, error-prone, and says nothing about purity. As biospecimen throughput increases, so does the need for fast, accurate low-volume quantification and QC.
Lunatic combines full-spectrum UV/Vis absorbance with a microfluidic plate to deliver one-step DNA or RNA purity and concentration from 96 samples in 10 minutes or less, without dyes or dilutions. For true high-throughput workflows, Lunatic integrates seamlessly with liquid handlers and plate loaders and always uses 2 µL per sample.
During this SelectScience® webinar, you will learn how Lunatic quantifies DNA and RNA with 2% accuracy and 1% precision, and see direct comparisons to fluorescence assays. You will also discover how full-spectrum UV/Vis with Unmix enables rapid purity assessment and decision-making. Plus, we will highlight real-world biobank applications for DNA quantification, normalization, and QC.
Key learning objectives:
- Learn how Lunatic combines UV/Vis absorbance measurements with a low volume 96-well plate to provide quick and easy reagent-free, dilution-free, and standard-free genomics quantification
- Understand the limitations of fluorescence-based quantification for NGS workflows
- Explore how to use Unmix to identify and quantify common contaminants
- See how biobanks and high-throughput labs use Lunatic for DNA quantification, normalization, and QC
