Double Beam
Wavelength Scans
Scans at
up to 4000nm/min are presented
on screen or printed with
all peaks annotated
with wavelength and absorbance.
Tables are also presented
listing
all peaks
and troughs with values.
Display
Scrolling
Use
of the display scrolling
facility enhances the effective
screen size and enables
spectra and data up to
430mm wide
to be viewed.
Dynamic
Scan Recall
The last 25
or more scans or plots are
automatically
retained for recall by
entering their scan sequence
number
and
may be reprocessed, overlaid
or transferred to protected
memory for future recall.
Overlaid
Spectral Scans
Up
to eight scans, including
stored scans, may be
overlaid, with or without
offsets for convenient comparisons
or further manipulation.
Difference
Spectra
New
wavelength scans or scans
from store may
be presented on screen
and the difference
spectra
produced. The scans
may be normalised enabling
spectral stripping
to reveal impurities
or additives.
Derivative
Spectra
Derivative
spectra, up to fourth are
readily
produced, with selectable
smoothing, either alone or
superimposed
on
the fundamental,
with or without an offset.
Scaling is automatic
with all peaks and troughs
quantified.
Scan
Storage
Up to 100 spectra
may be stored in
safe memory
for
future recall.
Each spectrum is automatically
allocated a recall
number, when stored, and
may be security
code protected
against tamper or deletion.
Programmed
Scans
Automatic
scans, single or repeat
may be made
of a cell program
of up to 4, 6 or 8 cells.
A programmed
sequence
of scans may
also be made of a
single sample.
Time
Course Plots
Changing
samples or flows may
be examined
and displayed by making a
time course
plot.
Data may be
reprocessed
and stored,
security code protected,
with an
automatically
assigned recall number.
Difference
Spectra
Many quantitative
methods
are available
including
band area
computation with background
correction,
differencing
and stripping of spectra,
wine and
colour
assays, mathematical calculations
between
several wavelengths, protein
and DNA assays.
Curve
and Line Fitting
A straight
line,
quadratic or
cubic
concentration curve may
be fitted to up to
30 standards,
with
or
without an intercept
at
the origin. Standards may
be deleted
and
replaced and a new curve
fitted.
Reaction
Kinetics
Single cell
kinetic measurements
are possible with
plots and data displayed
on
screen. Data
may be
reprocessed, regression
analysis applied
and curves
stored, security
code protected against tamper
or deletion.
Multi-Cell
Reaction Kinetics
Up
to four
or six
cells are
automatically measured
with all reaction
curves displayed
on screen.
Each curve
may be selected
for processing
with the
results of
regression analysis printed.
Multi
Wavelength Assays
Assays
are provided
using either
two or
three wavelengths. A wine
colour
assay is
provided which
may use
up to
ten different wavelengths.
DNA
and Protein
DNA
and Protein
assays may
be made
using either
the 2
or 3
wavelength
methods of
Warburg and
Christian. Also programmed
are techniques
and analytical
procedures for assays
by Lowry, Bradford, Biuret
and BCA
methods.
Band
Area and Height Computation
Band areas with
correction for sloping background
absorption are readily quantified,
with all details and construction
displayed. Band areas may also
be computed for derivative spectra
to facilitate difficult quantification.
Cell
Program
Using
the various
cell changers,
measurements may
be made
on up
to 4,
6 or
8 cells
at a
single wavelength
with cycle
time and number of
cycles entered
by the
operator. A cell
and wavelength program
may
be combined.
Wavelength
Program
Measurements
may be
programmed for
10 different operator selected
wavelengths
with the
cycle time
and number
of cycles selected by
the operator.
A wavelength and
cell program
may be combined.
