The Macylab UV-1300 is an automatic ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometer operating in the 190nm to 1100nm wavelength range with a fixed 4nm spectral bandwidth. Controlled by a single-chip microcomputer, the instrument features a 128×64 dots LCD screen that displays multiple sets of data and standard curves directly on the interface.
Equipped with imported deuterium and tungsten halogen lamps, the UV-1300 supports automatic wavelength adjustment and automatic filter changing. It is designed to accommodate various quantitative and qualitative measurement requirements across physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, and environmental science.
Key Features
Automated Optical Adjustments: Features automatic wavelength adjustment, automatic filter changing, and an auto-zero (100% adjustment) function to streamline testing procedures and improve measurement repeatability.
Digital Data Display & Storage: Equipped with a 128×64 dots LCD screen capable of displaying multiple data sets. The internal memory space stores standard curves and measurement data, utilizing a power-off save function to retain curve parameters.
Quantitative Measurement Modes: Supports the establishment of standard curves by testing up to ten standard samples. Users can also directly input standard concentration values or K and B factors to establish curves for quantitative testing.
Comprehensive Testing Functions: Integrated software capabilities include full-band or segmented wavelength scanning, kinetic tests for time-based absorbance changes, multi-wavelength testing, and dedicated DNA/protein concentration analysis.
Data Export & PC Control: Includes a general-purpose parallel printer port to print measurement data, curve parameters, and standard sample points. A built-in USB interface allows connection to a PC for flexible control and data management.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q1: What is the difference between the UV-1300 and the UV-1500?
The primary difference is the spectral bandwidth. The UV-1300 features a standard 4nm bandwidth suitable for routine testing, whereas the UV-1500 features a narrower 2nm bandwidth for higher-resolution analytical requirements. Both models share the same automatic wavelength and LCD display features.
Q2: Can the UV-1300 perform full-spectrum wavelength scanning?
Yes. The built-in software supports full-band spectrum scanning from 190nm to 1100nm, as well as segmented scanning to monitor specific absorbance changes.
Q3: Does the instrument require a computer to operate?
No. The UV-1300 functions as a standalone unit with its own LCD screen and keypad. However, it does include a USB interface for optional PC control and data export.
Q4: Can the instrument test DNA and proteins?
Yes. The UV-1300 includes dedicated test formulas for analyzing nucleic acid purity and protein concentration.
Q5: What size cuvettes can be used with this instrument?
The sample pool is designed to accommodate standard cuvettes with path lengths ranging from 5mm up to 100mm.
