Disposable cuvettes are used in many labs where cross contamination of samples is a concern or where the cost of quartz or glass cuvettes is too high.
Some disposable plastic cuvettes are not compatible with many common solvents, but the UV-Cuvette range from Brand offers excellent chemical compatibility, as well as high quality, in a disposable cuvette.
UV Cuvettes come in a range of sizes for macro down to micro volumes of sample
The German manufacturer Brand have been leading manufacturers of disposable cuvettes for over 25 years. The UV-Cuvette range are the newest addition to the family, and offer a high quality disposable cuvette with wide chemical resistance.
Ensuring High Quality
The UV-Cuvettes are manufactured and pacakged in highly controlled conditions with no human contact. This control even extends to packaging specific mold cavity numbers together, to ensure the lowest variations in extinction coefficient.
The individually wrapped versions are completely free of DNase, DNA and RNase, so can be used with confidence in photometric determinations of RNA and other biomolecules.
