Detailed information
-
【Ultra High Sensitivity】 By adopting an innovative optical design, we have achieved significantly superior light throughput compared to conventional circular dichroism dispersion meters. As a result, it is now possible to measure CD spectra with extremely low noise in a shorter measurement time.
-
The step scan used in Chirascan does not carry the risk of distortion because it acquires raw CD spectra without filtering. Additionally, if necessary, reversible smoothing processing can be applied after measurement.
-
[Software] The sophisticated lamp and purge N2 gas control software and analysis software enable intuitive operation.
-
We offer cuvettes and cuvette holders in various shapes and capacities.
-
LD Quet Cell enables the study of polymer structures and their interactions, such as DNA-ligand binding and the orientation of membrane proteins.
-
[Titration Device & pH Probe] This dual syringe titration system, fully automated and controlled by Chirascan software, systematically varies the concentration of the solution while maintaining a constant volume. The optional pH probe allows for on-site measurement of the sample's pH.
-
【Integrating Sphere & Solid Sample Holder】 The integrating sphere contains a large reflective area to ensure high signal-to-noise ratios when collecting CD data from highly scattering samples such as solids and powders. The wheel of the solid sample holder allows for the rotation of transparent samples like KBr disks to eliminate the effects of birefringence.
-
Stop-flow Using stop-flow accessories allows for the study of reactions in solution and the determination of rate constants. Changes in CD, absorbance, fluorescence, or fluorescence polarization can be monitored as a function of time.
-
Optical Rotation Dispersion (ORD) allows for the characterization of high-concentration chiral molecules, where the absorption bands may become unclear due to solvent or buffer salt absorption, or enables measurements at wavelengths where chiral molecules do not necessarily absorb light, when the functionality of CD analysis is limited by the properties of the sample.
