The BioDrop Duo+ combines our patented fixed pathlength microvolume port for reliability and consistency of results down to 1 µL of sample with the additional benefit of a standard 10 x 10 mm cuvette port.
At a range of 190-1100nm, pre-programmed Life Science methods and general spectrophotometry capabilities, this 2 in one instrument will fulfil the needs of the most demanding laboratories.
The microvolume sample port is easy to use: simply pipette as little as 1 µL and measure. Cleaning the port is easy too: just wipe with a lint free tissue to reduce sample carry over to undetectable amounts. Should a sample be unintentionally left on the port to dry out, mild detergents and distilled water should be used for a more thorough cleaning.
The cuvette port of the BioDrop Duo+ adds the versatility for the instrument to be used just like any standard spectrophotometer. For applications where a higher sample volume is required, eg. OD600 and enzyme kinetics, the Duo+ is a truly flexible instrument.

The BioDrop Duo+ microvolume sample port uses no moving parts. This means that the instrument provides excellent reproducibility without the need for regular pathlength calibration. Measurements are also highly accurate because the pathlength of the port is highly specified to 5 µm.
Pre-Programmed methods on the BioDrop Duo + instruments include DNA, RNA and Oligo Concentration, Protein Assays, OD600, and an extensive menu of commonly available fluorescent dyes for nucleic acids and proteins.
