The DS-C features the most powerful and intuitive software in its class. Pre-installed DeNovix EasyApps™ software and a breakthrough Custom Linux™ OS touchscreen interface ensure error-free operation and sample results under 2 seconds. Every instrument is ready right out of the box.
Built-in Wi-Fi, Ethernet and USB allow easy export of the data you want in the format you need. 32 GB of memory allows storage of millions of results!
Create simple kinetics methods measuring two absorbance wavelengths over a user-defined measurement frequency and period. EasyApps streamlines the process to create and save custom methods and enables cuvette temperature control between and 37° and 45° C.
The high-particulate nature of bacterial cell cultures benefit from a longer measurement pathlength. The particulates in these samples scatter light, and a 10mm pathlength provides a longer cross-section of the sample for the spectrophotometer’s light beam to travel through. This ensures the highest degree of accuracy and reproducibility when measuring these types of samples.
EasyApps Secure provides an optional suite of software controls that allow regulated GxP facilities to easily add DS-11 Series instruments to their compliant workflows (view the compliance statement). The software is fully integrated within the on-board operating system and includes a range of features essential to ensuring compliance, including:
