EzDrop 1000 Micro-Volume Spectrophotometer
The Blue-Ray EzDrop 1000 is an advanced, high-accuracy micro volume spectrophotometer engineered for rapid nucleic acid quantification and protein analysis. Operating across a full UV-Vis spectrum (190-1000 nm), it allows researchers to measure concentrations directly using just 1 to 2 µL samples. This means absolutely no cuvettes or dilutions are required.
Widely recognized as the industry's most reliable and affordable nanodrop alternative, the EzDrop 1000 features a unique automated measuring arm, an LED assist light for precise sample placement, and a standalone touchscreen spec interface. From pre-PCR DNA checks to cell density OD600 measurements, it is the ultimate spectrophotometer for genomics labs, life science institutes, and pharma companies.

Key Innovations of the EzDrop 1000
When conducting a benchtop spectrophotometer comparison, the EzDrop 1000 stands out due to its unique user-centric design features that eliminate common laboratory errors.
-
LED Assist Light for Sample Placement Reduces user error during pipetting. The built-in assist light gently illuminates the pedestal, ensuring your 1 µL drop is placed perfectly on the optical surface every time.
-
Automated Measuring Arm Say goodbye to mechanical inconsistencies. The EzDrop 1000 automated measuring arm automatically lowers over the sample to prevent bubble formation, guaranteeing a highly accurate nucleic acid analyzer experience.
-
Intuitive Standalone Operation Operates entirely via a built-in 7" touchscreen. This digital spectrophotometer for labs completely eliminates the need for an external PC, saving valuable benchtop space.
-
Instant RNA & DNA Quantification Delivers incredibly fast, 3-second measurement times. It evaluates nucleic acid purity ratio measurement (260/280 and 260/230 ratios) instantly to ensure quality before downstream processing.
Applications in Biotech & Molecular Diagnostics
From university research to pharmaceutical QC, the EzDrop 1000 UV-Vis spec handles the most critical biological analyses required in modern life sciences.
-
DNA Quantification Before PCR Ensure exact DNA loading concentrations for NGS and qPCR workflows. The ultra-wide 0.02-500 A OD range functions as an excellent pre-PCR quantification equipment without manual dilutions.
-
RNA Quality Check Before Sequencing A must-have sample quality analysis device for Next-Generation Sequencing. Instantly check RNA concentration and purity to avoid costly failed sequencing runs.
-
Protein Concentration Analysis Method Features dedicated modes for direct A280, BCA, Bradford, and Lowry assays, making it the perfect comprehensive protein quantification spectrophotometer for biochemistry labs.
-
OD600 Cell Density Measurement Includes an exclusive EzDrop 1000 OD600 cell counting function to track bacterial growth phases, an essential tool for microbiology, cloning, and protein expression labs.

Frequently Asked Questions
A micro volume spectrophotometer is used for highly accurate nucleic acid quantification (dsDNA, ssDNA, RNA) and protein concentration analysis. Because it uses the liquid's surface tension to create the optical path, it operates without needing traditional cuvettes or sample dilution.
To measure DNA concentration, simply pipette 1-2 µL of your purified DNA sample onto the EzDrop 1000 pedestal. The automated measuring arm lowers, the UV light passes through the sample, and the touchscreen instantly displays the concentration in ng/μL alongside purity ratios.
The EzDrop 1000 requires only a 1 µL to 2 µL sample to perform a highly accurate reading. This makes it an essential low sample volume spectrophotometer, preserving your precious genetic material for downstream applications.
The 260/280 ratio is a standard nucleic acid purity ratio measurement. A ratio of ~1.8 is generally accepted as pure for DNA, and ~2.0 is considered pure for RNA. The EzDrop 1000 calculates these ratios automatically in under 3 seconds to help you detect protein or solvent contamination.
The EzDrop 1000 is widely considered the best spectrophotometer for small samples. Features like the LED assist light prevent pipetting errors, and the automated arm prevents bubble formation—common issues in other manual models.
The EzDrop 1000 is recognized as the superior affordable nanodrop alternative. It matches the 190-1000 nm full spectrum, handles the same 1 µL volumes, but includes modern upgrades like a built-in touchscreen and automated arm at a highly cost-effective price point.
DNA quantification before PCR ensures that the correct starting concentration of template DNA is loaded into the reaction. Too much or too little DNA can result in failed amplification, non-specific binding, or inaccurate qPCR data.
A traditional UV-Vis spectrophotometer usually requires 1mL to 3mL of sample placed inside a cuvette. A microvolume vs cuvette spectrophotometer comparison shows that the microvolume spec (like the EzDrop) uses surface tension to hold a tiny 1 µL drop directly in the optical path, saving massive amounts of sample.
It passes specific wavelengths of UV light through the 1 µL sample. Nucleic acids absorb UV light optimally at 260 nm, while proteins absorb at 280 nm. The absorbance in spectrophotometry correlates directly to the concentration of the molecules in the sample according to the Beer-Lambert law.
