UV-Vis spectroscopy is a mature technology that has been used to analyze, characterize and quantify biological samples such as DNA, RNA and proteins for many decades. The use of UV-Vis has been limited to the traditional understanding of what these instruments are capable of.

As biological molecules are used with more sophistication in life science research across fields such as cancer research, drug development including vaccines, and finally in quality control in regulated environments, the technology used for the analysis should evolve too.

The Cary 3500 UV-Vis is a ground-breaking system with simultaneous measurement capabilities, the ability to measure multiple samples at different temperatures at the same time, and an extended absorbance range that will improve workflow efficiency.
