  • (1888PressRelease) April 13, 2012 - Launched in 2008, the NanoQuant Plate was the first solution on the market designed for simultaneous measurement of multiple low volume samples. This innovative device consists of 16 precision-manufactured quartz optics in a user-friendly format, offering precise, straightforward absorbance- and fluorescence-based measurements from sample volumes as low as 2 μl. Combined with Tecan's Infinite® series readers - the Infinite 200 PRO, Infinite F500 and Infinite M1000 PRO - the NanoQuant Plate provides the ideal solution for DNA or RNA quantification, allowing detection of concentrations down to 1 ng/μl for a wide variety of applications.

    To take full advantage of the NanoQuant Plate's exceptional sensitivity, Tecan has developed the Infinite 200 PRO NanoQuant specifically for absorbance applications with small sample volumes - another industry first. This sensitive plate reader offers the highest spectrometer capabilities, using Tecan's exceptional Quad4 Monochromators™ or UV-stable filters to cover the entire UV to NIR spectral range, and is available with a range of modules to provide the right solution for your needs.
