Lunatic: The Revolution in Protein and Nucleic Acid Quantification
The Lunatic represents the future of UV/Vis spectrophotometry, offering a complete solution for the rapid and accurate quantification of proteins and nucleic acids. This innovative device is designed to meet the needs of modern laboratories, combining optical technology with sophisticated microfluidic circuits.
With a processing capacity of up to 96 samples in just 5 minutes, the Lunatic is ideal for high-throughput environments. It uses a minimal sample volume of only 2 µL, allowing for precise measurements without the need for dilution. This feature is particularly advantageous for high-concentration samples, often encountered in biology and genomics research.
The Lunatic stands out for its exceptional dynamic range, capable of measuring absorbances from 0.03 to 275 OD. This wide range is made possible by the use of fixed-path microcuvettes integrated into microfluidic circuits that eliminate the risk of cross-contamination and evaporation. The system is also equipped with algorithms, such as Unmix algorithms, which allow for spectra deconvolution and biomolecule quantification even in the presence of common impurities.
The Lunatic's optical design is optimized for maximum performance. It uses a xenon flash lamp as its light source, providing intense white light across the entire UV/Vis spectrum. The vertical optical path and polychromatic spectrophotometric blocks allow for simultaneous measurement of the entire spectrum, ensuring fast and reliable results.
In addition to its impressive measurement capabilities, the Lunatic features a comprehensive software suite that includes specific applications for protein and nucleic acid quantification. These applications enable detailed sample analysis, taking into account common impurities and offering customized background correction options. The software is also compliant with 21 CFR Part 11, making it an ideal tool for regulated laboratories.
The Lunatic is available in two versions: the standard model, capable of processing up to 96 samples, and the "Little Lunatic," designed for lighter workloads with a capacity of 16 samples. Both models offer exceptional accuracy and reliability, ensuring high-quality results for every analysis.
The Lunatic is an essential tool for any laboratory looking to optimize its protein and nucleic acid quantification processes. With its features and innovative design, it offers a complete solution for fast, accurate, and reliable analyses.
