the cuvette port
For absorbance measurements with the cuvette port of infinite
optical path is used as for fluorescence excitation. For details of the light source
(1) and the excitation monochromator (2), please refer to chapter
2.2.1 Fluorescence/A) Fluorescence Intensity (FI). A fiber bundle guides the light
from the excitation monochromator to the absorbance cuvette optics (3), which
focuses the light through the cuvette. The absorbance cuvette measurement
module (4) is located right after the cuvette port. A silicon photo diode measures
the light being transmitted through the sample. Before measurement of the
cuvette, a reference measurement against air is performed with the cuvette port
moved out of the light beam. The figure also shows the light path of the
absorbance microplate module (5).
