Product description

UV-Vis spectrophotometer measuring absorbance and transmittance with high precision optical components.

In 1933, Shimadzu introduced its pioneering UV-Vis spectrophotometer, marking a significant advancement in analytical instrumentation. This instrument was designed to measure the absorbance and transmittance of substances across the ultraviolet and visible light spectra, facilitating precise quantitative and qualitative analyses in various scientific fields.

Key features included:

High-precision optical components ensuring accurate and reproducible measurements.
User-friendly interface for straightforward operation and data interpretation.
Robust construction suitable for consistent use in laboratory environments.

This spectrophotometer found applications in multiple scientific domains:

Chemistry: Determining compound concentrations and reaction kinetics.
Biology: Analyzing nucleic acids and proteins.
Pharmaceuticals: Assessing drug purity and formulation stability.

Commonly utilized in university laboratories, research institutions, and pharmaceutical companies, this instrument became a cornerstone for researchers requiring reliable spectroscopic analysis.

While the original 1933 model is no longer in use, it laid the foundation for modern UV-Vis spectrophotometers. Shimadzu's legacy continues with advanced models like the UV-1900i Plus, which offers ultra-fast scanning capabilities and compliance with current regulatory standards.

Why Questpair exists

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.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
