Sarstedt Disposable Cuvette 2 Boxes with 100 Cuvettes Each - Total of 200
Sarstedt 67.758 UV-Transparent Micro Cuvette – 70 µL to 2000 µL, 8.5 mm Center Height
The Sarstedt 67.758 is a premium disposable micro cuvette engineered for precision spectrophotometry in the ultraviolet and visible spectrums. Manufactured from a specialized, UV-transparent polymer, this cuvette provides excellent light transmission from 220 nm to 1600 nm, making it an ideal, cost-effective alternative to expensive quartz cuvettes. The unique internal geometry features a narrow "V" shaped base, allowing for accurate measurements with sample volumes as small as 70 µL, while accommodating up to 2000 µL for standard dilutions. Designed with a standard 10 mm path length and an 8.5 mm beam center height (Z-dimension), the 67.758 ensures compatibility with most leading spectrophotometers. Its disposable nature eliminates the time-consuming cleaning protocols and potential carryover effects required with reusable cells, streamlining high-throughput genomic and proteomic workflows.
Technical Performance and Design
Broad UV-VIS Range: Validated for high optical clarity down to 220 nm, allowing for the accurate measurement of DNA and RNA at 260 nm and proteins at 280 nm.
Micro-Volume Efficiency: The optimized internal cavity permits a minimum filling volume of only 70 µL, preserving precious or limited biological samples while still providing a full 10 mm light path.
8.5 mm Center Height: Precision-engineered for instruments with a lower optical beam height (e.g., many Eppendorf and Bio-Rad systems), ensuring the light path passes perfectly through the center of the micro-volume sample.
Optical Windows: Features two high-clarity, parallel optical windows designed to minimize light scattering and provide a consistent, reproducible baseline for every measurement.
