Description

The C103WS1 is a quartz fluorescence flow cuvette with 10 mm path length and three-way light optical configuration — three vertical faces are polished to optical grade, supporting 90° fluorescence geometry with reduced scattered light from the non-polished face. With an ultra-micro 250 µl internal volume (10 × 10 × 43 mm chamber), the cell is designed for continuous-flow and stopped-flow fluorescence measurements. Fabricated using Standard 80 (>80% transmittance) — assembled with optical-grade adhesive for reliable performance with aqueous samples. As a flow cell, this cuvette features inlet and outlet ports for connection to pumps, autosamplers, or flow-injection systems — no cap is included or required.

Why Three-Way Light?

The three-way configuration polishes three vertical faces to optical grade while leaving the fourth face frosted or unpolished. This reduces scattered excitation light reaching the detector in 90° geometry, improving signal-to-noise ratio for weakly fluorescent samples. The unpolished rear face acts as a light trap, minimizing back-reflections that can contribute to background fluorescence.

Flow Cell Design

This fluorescence flow cuvette features inlet and outlet ports that connect to tubing for continuous sample delivery. The flow-through design eliminates the need for a cap or stopper — sample is introduced via a pump, autosampler, or gravity-fed system and exits through the outlet port. This configuration is ideal for real-time monitoring of fluorescent analytes in flowing streams, stopped-flow kinetics experiments, and integration with liquid chromatography or flow-injection analysis systems. The 250 µl internal volume ensures rapid sample exchange and minimal dead volume.

Why Standard 80 Construction?

Standard 80 cuvettes are assembled using optical-grade adhesive to bond precision quartz panels, achieving transmittance >80% at 200–2500 nm. This fabrication method delivers reliable optical performance at an accessible price point — ideal for routine fluorescence measurements with aqueous samples. Standard 80 cuvettes are intended for use with aqueous (water-based) solutions only; organic solvents, strong acids, or strong bases may attack the adhesive joints. For solvent-resistant applications, consider Sintered 83 or Molded 83 alternatives.

Usage Tips: Handle by non-optical surfaces only — fingerprints on polished faces cause scattering artifacts that raise fluorescence background. Flush the flow cell with cleaning solution between sample runs to prevent cross-contamination. Standard 80 construction is suitable for aqueous (water-based) solutions only. Do not use with organic solvents, strong acids, or strong bases, as these may attack the adhesive joints. Ensure tubing connections are secure to prevent leaks. Compatible with Shimadzu, Agilent, PerkinElmer, Thermo Fisher, JASCO, Hitachi, Horiba, Edinburgh Instruments, and most commercial fluorimeters and flow systems.
