PathCheck Applied to Measurement of Protein Solutions in the SpectraMax Plus Microplate Spectrophotometer (MaxLine Application Note #26)

Protein concentration is commonly estimated by measuring the absorbance at 280 nm and calculating the concentration using the extinction coefficient of the protein. The procedure is feasible because extinction coefficients are typically obtained using standard cuvettes with a fixed 1 cm pathlength. Extinction-based protein assays can also...

Microdetermination of Phosphorus Using the SpectraMax Plus Microplate Spectrophotometer: Choice of Microplate, Cuvette, or Test Tube Assay Formats (MaxLine Application Note #24)

Most spectrophotometric methods for inorganic phosphorus (Pi) analysis are based on the color formed upon the reduction of a phosphomolybdate complex. The classic (and still widely-used) method is that of Fiske and Subbarow , in which the reduction is carried out with sulfite and aminonaphtholsulfonic acid. Over the years, modi...

UV Absorbance Measurements in SpectraMax Microplate Spectrophotometers MaxLine Application Note #32)

Molecular Devices Corporation. 7/99 In 1994, Molecular Devices introduced SPECTRAmax , the first microplate reader equipped with a monochromator, rather than bandpass filters, for wavelength selection. It was also the first microplate reader capable of measuring absorbance below 340 nm. These new features transformed the micropl...

Small-Molecule Quantitation Using Automated Single-Shot Averaging MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry

Traditionally, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry has been used very little for quantitative studies. Analysts have usually assumed that potential differences in ionization efficiency between analyte and internal standards and an inherent heterogeneity of the sample spot would limit MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry as a quantitative technique. In addition...

Photoluminescence Spectroscopy of Quantum Dots, monitored by the Spex FluoroMax

The optical properties of quantum dots (QDs) have potential applications in optoelectronics, biosensing and biolabeling, memory devices, and sources of laser light. For example, alloyed CdSeTe QDs are shown herein to possess a nonlinear change in their photoluminescence spectra, correlated to size and composition, as monitor...
