Hellma 100-QS Absorption Cuvette: Spectrophotometric Precision for Demanding Medical Environments
The Hellma 100-QS absorption cuvette is a benchmark solution for laboratories specialising in UV/Vis/NIR analysis requiring accurate and reproducible absorbance measurements. Made from high-performance optical quartz, it offers optimal transparency over a wide spectral range, from 200 to 2500 nm, making it compatible with a wide variety of medical, biochemical and pharmaceutical applications.
Each 100-QS cuvette is designed with exceptional dimensional accuracy: the optical path has strict tolerances, with precision up to ±0.01 mm depending on the model. This level of control is essential for obtaining reliable results, particularly in clinical or regulated environments. Its perfectly flat optical surface (1 µm) minimises wavefront distortion and guarantees measurement quality.
The rectangular cell body has standard dimensions (45 x 12.5 mm), with a constant internal width of 9.5 mm and a base of 1.5 mm, ensuring optimal compatibility with commercially available spectrophotometers. The model is equipped with a glass cover that allows effective closure without altering the composition of the sample.
Available in eight optical path lengths (from 1 mm to 100 mm), the Hellma 100-QS Absorption Cell can be selected according to the concentration of the samples to be analysed. Internal volumes range from 350 µl to 35,000 µl, depending on the version, for maximum flexibility in the laboratory.
Thanks to its thermal fusion assembly, the cuvette behaves like an extremely resistant single-piece component. It withstands aggressive chemical conditions and high temperatures while maintaining its optical performance. Its design also includes bevelled edges to reduce the risk of breakage during handling.
The Hellma 100-QS absorption cell meets the highest standards for absorbance analysis in medical applications, ensuring accurate, reproducible and stable measurements, even in the most demanding environments.
