Can the Optical Density Scanner by VT be used with the KX2 robot?
To determine if the Optical Density Scanner (VT) can be automated by PAA's robot software, you may need to consult with the manufacturer of the scanner or us. We can provide guidance on integration options, compatibility, and any necessary software or hardware requirements to automate the scanner within your workflow.
Overview of Optical Density Scanner instrument
An optical density scanner measures the absorbance of light by a sample to determine its concentration or turbidity. It's commonly used in microbiology, biochemistry, and molecular biology for various applications such as:
Microbial Growth Studies: Monitoring bacterial or yeast growth in cultures.
Enzyme Kinetics: Assessing enzyme activity by measuring changes in absorbance over time.
Cell Density Measurement: Estimating cell concentrations in cell cultures.
Protein and Nucleic Acid Quantification: Determining the concentration of proteins or nucleic acids in solution.
Industries utilizing optical density scanners include:
Biotechnology and Pharmaceutical: Drug discovery, fermentation monitoring, and protein expression analysis.
Academic and Research Institutions: Microbiology research, enzymology studies, and molecular biology experiments.
Food and Beverage: Monitoring microbial growth in food processing and quality control.
Environmental Testing: Assessing microbial populations in environmental samples.
Clinical Diagnostics: Quantification of biomolecules for diagnostic purposes.
