Overview

For applications where sample volume is a concern, the Minicell Adaptor with two focusing lenses allows you to measure sample in an assay volumes as low as 50 µL without losing sensitivity (e.g. 1 ng/mL dsDNA using PicoGreen, 50 pg of dsDNA in 50 µL assay volume).

The Minicell Adaptor Kit comes equipped with 400 borosilicate, flat-bottomed vials that are easily loaded in and out of the adaptor. The disposable vials eliminate potential cross-contamination and time-consuming cleanup required with non-disposable cells. Vials accommodate a sample volume range of 50-250 µL.

Results from the Minicell Adaptor used to quantitate DNA with Molecular Probes PicoGreen Assay.
