The Go Direct® SpectroVis® Plus Spectrophotometer quickly measures a full wavelength spectrum. Once the peak wavelength is determined, you can establish the concentration of a solution (Beer's law) or monitor rates of reactions. A low light path allows the device to be used for microscale labs and biochemistry applications with micro and semi-micro cuvettes. Rechargeable battery offers long battery life. Includes plastic cuvettes with lids, mini USB cable, and power supply.

Tariffs have driven up the cost of this item significantly. We apologize for the price increase. We are absorbing some of the impact to help teachers but are forced to pass most of it along.

Product Details
Introduce your students to spectroscopy with the affordable Go Direct® SpectroVis® Plus Spectrophotometer. This device can easily collect a full wavelength spectrum (absorbance, percent transmittance, or intensity) in less than one second. Once the peak wavelength is determined, you can establish the concentration of a solution (Beer's law) or monitor rates of reactions. A low light path allows the Go Direct® SpectroVis® Plus Spectrophotometer to be used for microscale labs and biochemistry applications with micro and semi-micro cuvettes. It comes with 15 plastic cuvettes and lids; additional plastic cuvettes can be purchased separately (item #118045).

Use the Go Direct® SpectroVis® Plus Spectrophotometer in a variety of spectroscopy experiments:

• Determine peak wavelength to collect data on solution concentration for studies of Beer's law or to monitor rates of reaction
• Collect a full wavelength spectrum to measure absorbance, percent transmittance, fluorescence (at 405 nm or 500 nm excitation), or emissions
• Conduct enzyme kinetics experiments
• Engage in equilibrium studies of absorbance vs. time or absorbance vs. concentration

Wireless or Wired—The Flexibility to Choose
The Go Direct® SpectroVis® Plus Spectrophotometer connects directly to your mobile device and Chromebook™ or other computer—no additional equipment or software purchases are necessary. The spectrophotometer can be used wired via USB or wirelessly via Bluetooth® technology, allowing you to choose the solution best for your classroom or laboratory.
