Ultra-fast, full UV/Vis spectrum absorbance microplate reader with cuvette port
BMG LABTECH’s innovative absorbance microplate reader has the flexibility to perform assays quickly and easily in both microplates or via the built-in cuvette port. This spectrometer-based absorbance microplate reader captures a full UV-visible spectrum in less than 1 sec/well. Its speed, simple push button operation, and capacity to store individual assay protocols make the SPECTROstar® Nano the ideal microplate reader for absorbance measurements.
Ultra-fast determination of DNA, RNA, ELISA, and more.
Details
The SPECTROstar Nano is equipped with BMG LABTECH’s ultra-fast UV/Vis spectrometer, which allows users to measure full-spectrum absorbance (220 – 1000 nm) in less than 1 second per well. It is the ideal instrument to read all absorbance assays in a microplate or cuvette – with many common assay protocols predefined and available at the click of a mouse.

Wavelength Selection
UV/Vis Absorbance Spectrometer Full spectra or 8 distinct wavelengths in < 1 sec / well
Spectral Range
Spectrometer 220 - 1000 nm for ABS
Sensitivity*
ABS with Spectrometer Full spectrum captured in < 1 s/well Selectable spectral resolution: 1, 2, 5, and 10 nm OD range: 0 to 4 OD Accuracy: < 1% at 2 OD Precision: < 0.5% at 1 OD and < 0.8% at 2 OD
Read Times
Full spectrum from 220 to 1000 nm in less than 1 sec/well
Shaking
Linear, orbital, and double-orbital with user-definable time and speed
Purge Gas Vent
System to inject an atmosphere or to pull a vacuum into the reader
Integrated Barcode Reader
External manual barcode reader
Incubation
+3°C above ambient up to 45 °C
The upper heating plate of the incubation chamber operates at 0.5 °C more than the lower plate. This prevents condensation build-up on the lid or sealer.
Software
Multi-user Reader Control and MARS Data Analysis Software included FDA 21 CFR Part 11 compliant
