The UV-VIS Spectrophotometer – OPTIZEN POP by K-Lab is an essential tool for precise laboratory measurements. Apex Scientific proudly offers this advanced equipment in South Africa. It is specifically designed to measure transmittance and absorbance across ultraviolet and visible light wavelengths. This versatile instrument supports general analysis and specialized research. It ensures reliable results in fields such as biotechnology, chemistry, and environmental science.
Accurate and Reliable Measurements
The OPTIZEN POP uses a sophisticated single-beam design for high accuracy and excellent reproducibility. It measures absorbance or transmittance for each wavelength, helping users identify concentration and purity. Moreover, it includes four distinct modes—Photometric, Quantitation, Spectrum, and Kinetics. This allows scientists to choose the mode best suited to their analysis.
User-Friendly Interface
Designed for ease of use, the OPTIZEN POP includes an intuitive touch screen and built-in software. All key PC software functions are integrated into the device, streamlining operation. Additionally, the compact design helps improve laboratory workflow. As a result, it is an excellent fit for modern workspaces.
Versatile Measurement Modes
Photometric Mode: This mode allows easy measurement of absorbance (Abs) (or transmittance (%T)) at a specific wavelength. You can set the factor (K) value, enabling simple quantitative analysis (C = K × A) of samples that are known only by absorbance (Abs) measurements.
Quantitation Mode: This mode utilizes the multi-cell holder to measure and manage calibration curves. Quantitative analysis of target samples can be performed using a calibration curve constructed with up to 7 samples of different concentrations. Four types of calibration curves are available: Linear (Zero-crossing), Linear, Quadratic, and Cubic. Accurate calibration curves can be constructed using results that are measured up to 5 times.
Calibration Manager: Through the Calibration Manager, you can use features such as selecting, creating, modifying, and deleting standard curves, as well as importing and exporting external Quantitation Mode files from external storage space.
Spectrum Mode: This mode allows users to view the spectrum of the desired wavelength range. Data conversion between absorbance (Abs) and transmittance (%T) is possible through shortcut keys. Automatic spectrum analysis of up to 7 samples (excluding reference sample) is possible. This mode includes features such as spectral zooming and finding the peak/valley positions in a spectrum.
Kinetics Mode: It is a mode that allows you to monitor the absorption (or transmittance) changes over time at a specific wavelength. It measures the absorbance (or transmittance) changes over time at a specific wavelength, and measurements are taken at regular time intervals. The minimum interval that can be set is 1 second. During the measurement, the progress rate is displayed, and measurement can be done up to a maximum of 24 hours. You can automatically acquire the absorbance changes of up to 7 samples. According to the measurement range and conditions, the minimum measurement interval may be adjusted.
Advanced Functionality
The OPTIZEN POP features a Calibration Manager for easy creation and modification of standard curves. It also supports real-time monitoring of equipment status, including lamp preheating and total usage time. Furthermore, voice guidance enhances usability, making it easier to operate for new and experienced users alike.
