Micro Cuvette with Black Walls and Lid

The micro cuvette with black walls and lid is a specialized, high-performance tool designed for precise spectrophotometric analysis in applications where only very small sample volumes are available. Engineered with advanced materials and optimized for maximum optical performance, this cuvette is the ideal solution for laboratories focused on high-sensitivity testing, sample conservation, and reliable results.

Crafted from black and clear quartz, this micro cuvette offers a powerful combination of durability, chemical resistance, and exceptional optical clarity. The clear quartz windows provide excellent light transmission across a broad wavelength range—including the deep UV spectrum—making it suitable for UV-Vis analysis of nucleic acids, proteins, and other sensitive compounds. The black quartz side walls are designed to partly avoid stray light, effectively minimizing background interference and improving the signal-to-noise ratio in low-volume absorbance measurements.

With a reduced internal volume, this micro cuvette is specifically designed to save solvent and sample, making it ideal for experiments involving rare, expensive, or limited-quantity reagents. Whether you’re performing DNA quantification, protein assays, or small-scale chemical analysis, the minimal volume requirement helps reduce waste and maximize efficiency—without compromising accuracy.

The cuvette features a secure, chemical-resistant PTFE (Teflon) lid, which helps protect your samples from evaporation, contamination, and external light exposure during testing. This is especially valuable for time-sensitive kinetic studies or light-sensitive compounds. The lid ensures consistent measurement conditions and adds convenience during sample handling, storage, or transportation within the lab.

Standardized to a 10 mm optical path length, the micro cuvette fits seamlessly into most common UV-Vis spectrophotometers and cuvette holders, ensuring easy integration into existing workflows. Its high-precision optical surfaces are polished to strict tolerances, allowing for highly reproducible and accurate results across multiple testing sessions.

Applications for this cuvette span across life sciences, molecular biology, clinical diagnostics, pharmaceutical development, and environmental testing. Its micro-volume design makes it an ideal choice for high-value or difficult-to-obtain samples, where every microliter counts. Researchers and analysts working in high-throughput or limited-resource environments will especially benefit from the cuvette’s ability to conserve materials without sacrificing data quality.

In summary, the micro cuvette with black walls and lid is made of black and clear quartz, offering the dual advantages of partially blocking stray light and saving solvent. It delivers high accuracy, chemical resistance, and reliable sample protection in a compact form. Whether you’re conducting routine lab work or advanced scientific research, this micro cuvette provides the precision, safety, and efficiency required in today’s demanding laboratory settings.
