Featured Products
Go Direct Fluorescence/UV‑VIS Spectrophotometer
This spectrophotometer measures the fluorescence and absorbance spectra of samples such as quinine sulfate, fluorescein, chlorophyll, and fluorescent proteins. Connect it to your device via Bluetooth® wireless technology or USB.
Go Direct Polarimeter
The concept of chirality can be difficult for students to visualize. Go Direct® Polarimeter provides a visual representation of this concept by measuring the optical rotation of optical somers such as sugars, amino acids, and proteins.
Go Direct Tris‑Compatible Flat pH
The Go Direct Tris‑Compatible Flat pH Sensor is a highly versatile sensor. Because the glass membrane is flat instead of bulb-shaped, it is more durable, easier to clean, and allows for flat surface measurements or smaller sample sizes.
Go Direct Temperature
Collect real‑time temperature measurements of a single instance or over a period of time. Its range and wireless capability make the Go Direct Temperature Probe the go‑to sensor for real‑world applications.
Go Direct Conductivity
The Go Direct Conductivity Probe has a range of 0 to 20,000 μS/cm to provide optimal precision in any given range. An alternating current at its electrodes prevents polarization and electrolysis, reducing contamination of solutions.

Isolation and Characterization of Protein and Sugar from Milk
Introduce students to classic biochemical separation techniques with this experiment. They isolate major milk components and use polarimetry to characterize the optical activity of the recovered sugar.
Malate Dehydrogenase Enzyme Assay and Nucleic Acid Quantitation
Give students hands‑on experience with enzyme kinetics using a UV‑VIS spectrophotometric assay. They track changes in NADH absorbance and use those data to calculate malate dehydrogenase activity.
