Step 10

 

Apply/insert  the  reference  sample.  Press 

Blank

  Key.  This 

will be used for all subsequent samples until changed. 

Step 11

 

Apply/insert sample and press 

Sample

 

. This measures 

at  both  260  and  280  nm  wavelengths  and  displays  the 
result.  Protein  concentration  is  calculated  (corrected  by 
background wavelength value if selected). 

Step 12

 

If  the  absorbance  value  of  the  sample  is  not  in  the  linear 
range  a  “Warning  message”  will  pop  up  and  “Instruction” 
will be displayed in the top left corner of the result screen. 
Please  refer  to  3.2  Software  instructions/important 
information on page 11 for further information. 

Step 13

 

Repeat for all samples.  

Step 14

 

Press 

Menu/Options

 to display available Options which are 

described on page 8. 

Step 15

 

Press 

Escape

 

 and confirm with
