Spectrophotometer:Fluorescence: Turner BioSystems: TBS-380: Mini-Fluorometer The TBS-380 Mini-Fluorometer is an affordable, sensitive fluorometer designed for quick, easy, and accurate fluorescence measurements. The TBS-380 provides high sensitivity for fluorescence measurements and is so easy to use that you can have results within minutes. Single-point calibration saves time and the dual-channel design allows you to switch between two assays with the touch of a button. Small and Sensibly Priced, The TBS-380 Mini-Fluorometer is smaller than a standard sized book, saving you valuable bench space. It is sensibly priced to meet your need for accurate fluorescence measurements within a limited budget. Simple, The TBS-380 Mini-Fluorometer is designed for fast, accurate fluorescence measurements. It is so easy to use that you can have results within minutes without training.
