Thermo Scientific™ μDrop™ Duo Plate

High-Capacity, Low-Volume Plate for DNA, RNA, and Protein Quantification

The Thermo Scientific™ μDrop™ Duo Plate is an advanced low-volume microplate specifically engineered for rapid, high-throughput quantification of DNA, RNA, and protein samples using only 2–10 µL per measurement. Designed for seamless integration with Thermo Scientific™ Varioskan™ LUX, Multiskan™ Sky, and Multiskan™ SkyHigh microplate readers, the μDrop Duo Plate supports up to 32 individual sample positions, making it ideal for labs requiring efficient and reproducible concentration analysis across multiple samples.

The μDrop Duo Plate is optimized for use with an 8-channel pipette, facilitating fast and accurate sample loading. A dedicated rectangular cuvette slot adds measurement flexibility, allowing researchers to switch between microvolume and standard cuvette-based quantitation. Pre-configured protocols available in SkanIt™ Software and the SkyHigh user interface make data acquisition intuitive and consistent.
