Dual wavelength UV absorption sensor with inline optical detection, essential for bioprocess and molecular diagnostics monitoring.
The Optek AF46 Dual Wavelength UV Absorption Sensor is a high-precision inline spectrophotometric sensor designed for real-time process analytical technology (PAT) applications in biotechnology and pharmaceutical production. Featuring dual-wavelength UV absorption measurement, this sensor enables accurate quantification of analytes by simultaneously monitoring two UV wavelengths. Its inline optical detection capability supports continuous bioprocess monitoring, including critical applications in molecular diagnostics, gene editing workflows, and biomanufacturing pipelines. The AF46 sensor ensures reliable data acquisition for bioprocess optimization, synthetic biology research, and clinical diagnostics. Fully tested and ready for deployment, this sensor integrates seamlessly into various bioreactor setups and analytical platforms, making it widely used in bioprocess monitoring, live-cell assays, and fluorescence analysis environments.
Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.
We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.
We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
