A Complete Guide to Absorbance and Fluorescence Quantification

Learn when to select absorbance or fluorescence to assess sample quantity and quality.

Share

The success of next generation sequencing or western blotting is often affected by sample quantity and purity. To assess these parameters, researchers measure sample absorbance or fluorescence. However, sensitivity, speed, and sample volume requirements make it challenging to determine when to employ each method.
