The Grant-Bio DEN-1 and DEN-1B are a compact benchtop densitometers (suspension turbidity meter) for measuring turbidity of cell suspensions in a variety of life science applications. The densitometers are designed, and factory calibrated to measure turbidity in the range of McFarland units. For DEN-1 and DEN-1B it is 0.00 to ﹥15.00 McFarland units with a small standard deviation.
- Measurement range: McFarland units 0.00 to >15.00
- Measurement time : 1 second
- Precision: ±3%
- Readings, conveniently shown in McFarland units, are clearly visible on the bright LED display
- Factory calibrated — retains calibration without power supply
- Can be user calibrated with commercial standards or cell suspensions prepared in the laboratory
- Designed for tubes with an outer diameter of 18mm, 16 and 12mm tubes can also be accommodated by using the optional tube adaptor D-16 (included) or A-12 (sold separately)
- Extremely compact design with small footprint and low profile — fits easily into the smallest workspace
- DEN-1B is either battery powered by 3 x AA or via external power supply
