Implen, a World Leader in Nanotechnology Announces the Launch of the NanoPhotometer™ Pearl, setting the new standards for Sample Size, Speed and Accuracy of Spectrophotometers.

Munich, Germany and Westlake Village, CA, USA (September 15, 2010) – Spectrophotometrical analysis of small sample volumes is increasingly popular in the nanotechnology scientific environment. With the new NanoPhotometer™ Pearl Implen GmbH (Munich, Germany) is setting a new nanotechnology standard in spectrophotometrical small volume analysis of DNA, RNA and even Protein samples.

The new Implen NanoPhotometer™ Pearl : Small. Fast. Accurate.

Small: The NanoPhotometer™ Pearl offers the smallest sample volume analysis currently available in its class of spectrophotometers, down to 0.3 μl while providing the widest spectrophotometrical dynamic range starting from 2 ng/μl – 18,750 ng/μl for dsDNA.

Fast: Within only 3.5 sec the Implen NanoPhotometer™ Pearl performs a full sample scan from 200nm – 950nm. Cleaning the NanoPhotometer™ Pearl is fast too. Cleaning the measurement window and lid mirror takes just seconds and you are ready for your next sample with no cross contamination, no dilution errors and no carry over effects.

Accurate: With its patented "Sample Compression Technology™", the NanoPhotometer™ Pearl is maintenance free. Measurements are very accurate and highly reproducible over the entire lifetime of the product.

The unit offers the highest flexibility to its user, featuring standard cuvette capability, mobile operation, and a choice of various data output options including thermal printer, USB, Bluetooth and SD-RAM card.
