Low-Volume Spectrophotometer
Spectrophotometric measurements based on the light passing through a solution at a certain spectrum and the extent of its absorbance. Maximum absoption of DNA and RNA is at 260 nm, while it is 280 nm for protein solutions. 260 and 280 nm (A260/A280) ratio in the measurement range gives the purity of nucleic acids.
