Rapid Eight Channel UV-Vis
Based on the award-winning technology of the DS-11 Series, DS-8X Eight Channel Spectrophotometers ensure confidence in every measurement.
• Rapid Multichannel UV-Vis
• GxP Compliance Ready
• Eliminate Measurement Errors
• Proven DeNovix Technology
• Maintenance-Free Design
• Powerful EasyApps™ Software
The DS-8X employs a suite of quality assurance features to ensure reliable and accurate microvolume measurements. Proprietary DeNovix SmartPath™ technology uses micron-level pathlength control and immediate absorbance feedback. The measurement pathlength for every sample is automatically optimized through continuous sample compression.
Bridge Testing™ verification eliminates unreliable results that stem from broken sample columns or loading issues. The algorithm detects unbridged samples and adjusts in real-time to deliver accurate results, even for challenging 1 µL protein samples.
Automatically Optimized for Every Sample
Multiple algorithms ensure confidence in results while also providing important information about possible sample anomalies.

Full installation and qualification (IQ/OQ) package available.
Flexible import and export options in LIMS-friendly formats.
Our ergonomic pipette guide ensures error-free sample loading. Adjustable to accommodate for left- or right-handed users and any size pipette tip.
Easy operation and no additional laptop or PC maintenance thanks to a 7 inch HD touchscreen, compatible with all common laboratory gloves.
Never lose track of where you are on your plate! This plug and play USB accessory links with the DS-8X to help guide your loading process. Software-controlled LEDs illuminate the correct sample column to measure based on your template configuration.
