The Millipore Direct Detect is the first infrared (IR)-based biomolecular quantitation system and provides more accurate results without the pitfalls of colorimetric assays.

Uses
- Distinguishing proteins and peptides from interfering sample components
- Measuring amide bond absorbance for higher reproducibility across all proteins and peptides
- Detection of biomolecules including nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates
- Quantification of long aliphatic chains in lipids and detergents
Specifications
