Direct protein quantitation using the SpectraDrop Micro-Volume Microplate
11 Mar 2025This application note highlights the use of the SpectraDrop™ Micro-Volume Microplate for rapid, low-volume protein quantitation via UV absorbance. The plate’s innovative design, featuring a Teflon-coated slide and adjustable path lengths, enables accurate measurement of BSA concentrations ranging from 0.012 mg/mL to 100 mg/mL — eliminating the need for sample dilution. Ideal for high-throughput workflows, the SpectraDrop plate streamlines protein analysis with sample volumes as low as 2 µL.

Microplate Readers / DetectorsMicroplate readers are used to automate the detection and analysis of labeled or label-free components in microplates during assays or live-cell monitoring. Microplate readers are generally distinguished by their mode of detection. Types include absorbance, luminescence, fluorescence intensity, fluorescence polarization, TRF / FRET and multimode microplate readers. Microplate readers deliver a high throughput of samples by reading multiple wells simultaneously, with the 96-well format the most commonly used. As a result, microplate readers are often used in the drug discovery, bioassays, research and pharmaceutical industries for screening applications. Microplate loading can also be automated, with robotic microplate stackers to increase throughput.
