UV-Vis Tutorial | Part 2: Performing a Quantitative Measurement

The second part in a series on how to accurately measure the optical spectra of solutions of nanoparticles using a UV-VIS (UV-Visible) spectroscopy. In this demo, we use an Agilent 8453 spectrophotometer to accurately measure a high concentration solution of nanoComposix's BioPure Silver Nanospheres using an analytical balance.

The video discusses:

• Optimal absorbance to take UV-Vis measurements
• Measurement techniques for performing a dilution
• Critical data that needs to be captured in order to accurately perform a quantitative calculation
