| The JASCO J-1500 CD spectrometer allows you to explore the structure and stability of biomolecules by providing the maximum signal-to-noise under highly absorbing, low light intensity conditions of the far-UV spectral region down to 163nm. Take a look at two recent papers published below showing data using the JASCO J-1500 CD spectrometer. |
