CVD-UV and CVD-VIS Disposable Cuvettes

|
The
latest technology in plastic CVD-UV
Cuvettes work in the UV range--transmitting light between 220-900
nm, while the CVD-VIS
Cuvettes transmit light from 350-900 nm and are suited for use in VIS
applications. Both cuvette types have a 1-cm path length and can be used with any Ocean Optics 1-cm cuvette holders.

Disposable Cuvette Benefits
-
Disposability prevents
cross-contamination risk.
-
No cleaning is required.
-
Cuvettes are highly chemically resistant. The plastic
disposable cuvettes can be used with most polar organic solvents, as
well as acids and bases.
-
The mold cavity number is used to group
plastic cuvettes at production time; this helps to ensure the lowest
cuvette-to-cuvette variation in extinction coefficient.
-
Recessed windows prevent scratching of
the optical pathway.
"Z" Dimension
Cuvettes and cuvette holders offered by Ocean
Optics have a "Z" dimension of 15 mm. Only the
qpod has a Z dimension of 8.5 mm.

We've
Got You Covered
We offer cuvette covers made specifically for our
line of disposable
cuvettes. Available in 100-unit quantities, these covers fit securely
into the disposable cuvette to provide a seal that protects
against sample spillage if the cuvette is dropped or tipped
over.
