MSE PRO Standard Cuvettes With Lid, 5mm Path Length, Optical Glass (340nm-2500nm)

5 mm Glass Cuvette with Lid, 1.7 ml, for Visible and NIR Spectroscopy

This 5 mm glass cuvette holds 1.7 ml in a 10 mm wide chamber with 2 polished windows for absorbance measurements. The MSE PRO cell is made from optical glass.

A 1.7 ml fill sits between micro and full-size cells, a practical middle ground for routine visible-range measurements when sample is limited.

The PTFE (Teflon) lid keeps dust out and slows evaporation between readings.

Optical glass transmits from 340 nm through the visible range to 2,500 nm. It is a cost-effective choice for visible and near-infrared measurements, but glass absorbs UV light below 340 nm, so it is not suitable for UV readings such as 260/280 nm. Use a quartz cuvette for those.

The 5 mm path length gives about 0.5 times the absorbance of a standard 10 mm cell, which keeps concentrated or strongly absorbing samples within the readable range of the instrument.

Outer dimensions are 45 x 12.5 x 7.5 mm (H x W x D). Check that your spectrophotometer's cell holder accepts this footprint before ordering.

The cell is made by temperature fusion. Other sizes and custom inside widths are available on request.
