Spectrofluorophotometer (RF-6000)

The RF-6000 spectrofluorophotometer has been newly developed by combining Shimadzu’s long-cultivated expertise and cutting-edge technologies. Combined with LabSolutions RF software, designed for unrivaled measurement accuracy and easy operation, the RF-6000 offers the ultimate performance for a diverse range of customers’ measurement needs.

Features: 

– High-sensitivity measurements can be performed with S/N ratios of 1,000:1 (RMS) or 350:1 (P-P).
– Improved lower limit of quantitation. Measures concentrations up to 1 x 10^-13 mol/L (fluorescein).

– Enables ultrafast scanning at speeds up to 60,000 nm/min. All wavelength regions can be measured in only one second. 3D fluorescence spectra can also be measured quickly.

– The Xenon lamp offers long service life and high stability. The 2000-hour service life significantly reduces running costs. In addition, auto alignment technology allows customers to easily replace the lamp without tedious adjustment routines.

– A low-noise photomultiplier is included standard. It offers high measurement sensitivity for long wavelengths. Consequently, it can measure substances that exhibit fluorescence at longer wavelengths, such as chlorophyll and indocyanin green (ICG). Below are Excitation and Emission spectra of indocyanin green, which is used for testing hepatic function and hepatic spare ability.
