20/20 Bio™ Microspectrophotometer

20/20 Bio Microspectrophotometer

The 20/20 Bio™ microspectrometer is designed for spectroscopy and imaging of  microscopic biologics.

The 20/20 Bio™ incorporates the latest technological advances in optics, spectroscopy and software to deliver the best performance microspectroscopy of biological structures. It is easy to use yet able to measure sub-micron sized features of biological samples. As such, the 20/20 Bio™ represents a giant leap forward in biological UV-visible-NIR microspectroscopy.

The 20/20 Bio™ microspectrophotometer combines the latest technologies to allow the user to measure UV-visible-NIR range transmission, absorbance, emission and fluorescence spectra of samples as small as one micron. And all with the same instrument! Additionally, the samples are viewed simultaneously during microspectral data acquisition. This allows the user to visually and spectroscopically monitor changes in biological systems in real time and to store both the visual record (as images or movies) as well as the time resolved kinetic spectra. This is a real boon for in vivo and in vitro studies.

The 20/20 Bio™ microspectrophotometer is simple to use, the measurements are non-destructive and the spectral data is unmatched.

 

The 20/20 Bio™ Microspectrometer can take spectra and images from the deep ultraviolet to near infrared with one seamless operation. It can acquire microspectra and images in absorbance, reflectance, and fluorescence. The microspectrometer is offered with both the DirecVu™ to view samples by eye as well as with a high resolution UV-visible-NIR digital imaging system.
