A spectrophotometer is a device used to measure and analyze aspects of light absorption in liquids and solids. Readings are displayed in digital or analog format. A spectrophotometer can have a handheld body for field use, or a bench-top body for laboratory applications. It may have one or more adapters to enable it to measure surfaces or liquids. A spectrophotometer is used for testing and measuring in anatomy, chemistry, agriculture, process plant, food and beverage making, homeland security, and educational applications.
Labomed manufactures spectrophotometers, microscopes, diagnostic instruments, and accessories for scientific and medical laboratories. The company, founded in 1980, is headquartered in Culver City, CA and meets International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards 9001:2013.
