User Manual (equipment)

 

The NanoDrop 3300 is a microvolume, broad spectrum fluorospectrophotometer with pedestal. Its small sample requirement and ease of use makes the instrument well suited for a diverse range of fluorescence measurements from RiboGreen, PicoGreen, and GFP to advanced nanoparticle and FRET analyses.

Specifications include:

  • 400 - 750 nm wavelength measurement range.
  • 1 - 2 ul sample volume.
  • Has 3 LEDS. Excitation maxima are: UV: 365 nm; Blue: 470 nm; White: 460 – 650 nm.
  • UV LEDmax = 365 nm; equipped with cut filter that eliminates excitation above 400 nm | Example Applications: GFP wt, Hoechst 33258, 4-MU, Q Dots various, Fluoraldehyde OPA, Fluorescamine, FRET.
  • Blue LEDmax = 470 nm | Example Applications: GFP wt, eGFP, FITC-FAM, Alexa 488, PicoGreen, RiboGreen, Alexa 555, B-Phycoerythrin, Q Dot various, SybrGreen, SybrGold, FRET.
  • White LED range = 460 – 650 nm; uses virtual filtering | Example Applications: Cy3, Alexa 555, Alexa 568, Cy5, Alexa 647, Sulforhodamine 101, 5-CMTR, Q Dots various, TET, Hex, Molecular beacons.
