Model Description:

The Thermo Scientific NanoDrop OneC combines microvolume and cuvette-based UV-Vis spectrophotometry in a single benchtop unit, ideal for molecular biology, genomics, and proteomics labs measuring nucleic acid and protein concentrations.

Highlights

• Dual sample options: 1 µL microvolume pedestal plus cuvette port for dilute samples
• Full spectral range (190–850 nm) with built-in Wi-Fi and touchscreen interface
• Preloaded methods for DNA, RNA, and protein quantification (A260/A280 ratios)
• Fast measurement cycle with no dilutions required for most concentrated samples
