    What is a Spectrophotometer?
    Spectrophotometers are instruments used to measure the concentration of substances, and their basic principle involves determining the concentration of a substance based on its absorbance properties. The measurement principle is founded on Beer-Lambert's Law, which states that the absorbance of light by a substance is directly proportional to the concentration of the substance and inversely proportional to the path length of the light. Spectrophotometers achieve this by breaking down visible or ultraviolet light into different wavelengths and then measuring the intensity of light absorbed by the sample at different wavelengths to determine the substance's concentration. In this article, Sisco will briefly introduce spectrophotometer to you, including its components, working principle, classifications, usage process and applications etc., to help you have a better understanding of it.
    How to Use a Spectrophotometer?
    Before using the spectrophotometer, the user should first understand the structure and working principle of the spectrophotometer, as well as the functions of each control knob. Before turning on the power, you should check the safety performance of the instrument. The power wiring should be firm, and the power should be good. The initial position of each adjustment knob should be correct and then press the power switch.
