UV/vis laboratory spectrophotometer for multiple samples NanoDrop
NanoDrop™ 8000

The Thermo Scientific NanoDropTM 8000 Spectrophotometer enables highly accurate UV/Vis analyses of 1 ul samples, up to 8 at a time. Like the popular Thermo Scientific NanoDropTM 1000 Spectrophotometer, the NanoDrop 8000 utilizes a patented sample retention system that eliminates the need for cuvettes and capillaries. In addition, the high absorbance capability eliminates the need for dilutions in most cases. The user simply loads up to 8 samples (using an 8-channel pipette) and the instrument measures all 8 samples in less than 20 seconds - and cleaning simply requires wiping with an ordinary lab wipe.

The NanoDrop 8000 also comes with a Sample Position Illuminator feature that allows the user to select which well(s) are to be loaded if using a 96-well plate. The selection is done from an on-screen graphical interface and the corresponding well(s) on the plate are illuminated to facilitate the loading process. The software allows for an "auto advance" capability while loading, "cherry picking" well(s) to be illuminated, and setting Out of Range concentration or absorbance limits to be flagged.
