Advantages:
Fluorometer-binding quantitative kits use fluorescent dyes to selectively bind to specific target molecules. These fluorescent dyes emit fluorescent signals only when the target molecule is bound. Therefore, it is more accurate than the traditional UV absorption method, because the UV absorption method is not selective and measures the absorption value of all substances at 260 – such as DNA, RNA, protein, degrade nucleic acids and free nucleotides or excess salt ions, etc. In addition, the UV spectrophotometer is not sensitive enough to accurately quantify DNA and RNA at low concentrations (below 2ng/μL), so a highly sensitive fluorometer becomes a better choice. Combined with the corresponding quantitative kit, the Fluorometer can quickly, sensitively and accurately determine the concentration of DNA.
