With the 6800 Jenway introduces the first double beam spectrophotometer to the range. The highly stable optics and 1.5nm spectral bandwidth ensures high resolution and accuracy on every measurement. The Jenway Flight Deck software offers modes for all common measurement methods: photometrics and multi-wavelength, spectrum scanning, time scan and kinetics, quantitation, DNA/ RNA and protein measurements. With extensive post-measurement tools and easy export to Excel® the 6800 double beam spectrophotometer ensures that all results are presented exactly to your requirements.

The 6800 is now available to order with IQ/ OQ documentation. IQ/ OQ is the process of verifying and validating that the instrument is installed correctly and conforms to its specification. This documentation is an important component of the quality management system.
