The LARK® Type A1 Macro Spectrophotometer Cuvettes are high-precision cuvettes engineered for ultraviolet to near-infrared absorbance measurements across the 190–2500 nm spectral range. Made from high-purity synthetic quartz, these cuvettes deliver excellent UV transparency and are ideal for biochemical assays, pharmaceutical analysis, and environmental applications.
Each cuvette is equipped with a rounded bottom to aid in mixing and cleaning, two optically polished side windows for accurate light path transmission, and a PTFE stopper for sample protection. Designed for macro-volume handling, the cuvettes are reusable and compatible with most UV-Vis spectrophotometers.
