Understanding How True Path Technology™ Allows Accurate Measurement of Ultra-Low Volume Samples

16 Jul 2017

The True Path Technology™ of the NanoPhotometer® NP80/N60/N50 allows the instrument to provide accurate and reliable measurements for ultra-low volume samples of 0.3 µl to 2 µl. This technical note explains how the True Path Technology™ uses two accurate path lengths as fixed anchor points, in order to create a calibrated optical environment that does not change over time. This provides accurate and linear results over the lifetime of the instrument without any need for recalibration.

UV-Visible SpectroscopyUltraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometers are used to measure the interaction of UV and visible light with a sample, including transmission, reflectance & absorbance. The two major instrument classes are single-beam or double-beam spectrophotometers. More specialized equipment includes colorimeters, spectroradiometers and refractometers. Portable and microvolume spectrophotometers are also available. For the modular spectroscopy lab, explore a range of light sources for combination with a spectrograph/spectrometer and optics.
