Description
VNE071 – 100 µL Sub-Micro Absorption Cuvette, Black Walls, 10 mm Lightpath, 2 Windows, Bonded Fabrication
The VNE071 is a sub-micro quartz cuvette specifically designed for low-volume absorbance measurements in the UV/VIS range. With a 10 mm optical path length and an internal volume of just 100 µL, it enables accurate measurements of precious or limited samples while maintaining a standard beam geometry.
This cuvette is built with black external walls to minimize stray light and reflection, ensuring optimal signal-to-noise performance in sensitive assays. Its bonded fabrication provides a cost-effective solution and allows fast customization for routine applications involving aqueous solutions.
Chemical Compatibility
Bonded quartz cuvettes are designed for aqueous samples only. The optical adhesive is not resistant to strong solvents or harsh chemicals.
- ✔ Compatible: water, buffers, saline, mild aqueous solutions.
- ⚠ Not suitable for strong acids, bases, or organic solvents.
- ❌ Incompatible with toluene, acetone, MEK, chloroform, and HF.
Key Features
- 10 mm optical path length with 2×5 mm aperture window — compatible with standard spectrophotometers.
- 100 µL ultra-low sample volume — ideal for precious or limited biological and chemical samples.
- Black outer walls minimize stray light for higher accuracy in absorbance measurements.
- Bonded fabrication — fast lead time and cost-effective for aqueous sample testing.
- Wavelength range: UV/VIS (190–2500 nm).
Typical Applications
- DNA/RNA and protein quantification
- Enzyme kinetics and biochemical assays
- UV/VIS absorbance measurements of low-volume samples
- Water and buffer solution testing
- Routine laboratory or educational use
