"The world's fastest and most sensitive integrated bench-top luminescence spectrometer"

 

The all new Quattro 3-D bench-top fluorometer 

 

 3-D DYAG, 15 seconds

 

All-New Quattro Luminescence Spectrometer

  Quattro pic ver 1 

 Quattro unique benefits, 

  • 5 femtomolar fluorescein spectral detection limit!
  • Phosphorescence decays acquired from a single 1 µs flash!
  • 3-D matrix of wavelength versus decay acquired in seconds!
  • Unique lifetime-based reaction kinetics!

There has never been a bench-top luminescence spectrometer that could offer a single one of these unique benefits, let alone all four. Now, with the introduction of the all new Quattro from Optical Building Blocks Corporation, your luminescence research lab can have it all, and much more, in a compact, easy-to-use and very affordable system.

 

The Quattro is the fastest and most sensitive integrated bench-top luminescence spectrometer in the industry, and it offers many unique benefits, all in a simple, easy to use and affordable system.
 
Building on decades of experience in luminescence technology, the Quattro provides outstanding results and excellent data quality.
  

 

The Quattro offers unmatched sensitivity

 Water Raman

The sensitivity of the Quattro is unmatched by any commercial integrated bench-top luminescence system. Minimum system SNR of 7,500:1 with 350 nm excitation, 5 nm slits, 1 second time constant.

  

 5 fM fluorescein

Unmatched femtomolar fluorescein detection. This spectrum was obtained without background subtraction.

 

The Quattro offers unmatched speed

 

3-D DYAG, 15 seconds

 

The speed of the Quattro is unmatched by any commercial integrated bench-top luminescence spectrometer. This entire 3-D spectrum of µs decay versus emission wavelength for DYAG crystal was obtained in only 15 seconds.

  

The Quattro offers unique capabilities

 

 DNA-Lanthanide Binding Kinetics

The Quattro's lifetime-based reaction kinetics acquisition protocol is unique in the industry. No other integrated bench-top luminescence spectrometer can acquire lifetimes as a function of time because no other system is as fast as the Quattro.  

 

The Quattro offers much more

About Optical Building Blocks

 

Optical Building Blocks (OBB) is a sister company to Photon Technology International (PTI).

 

As you may know PTI has been a world leader in fluorescence instrumentation for almost thirty years now. A few years ago we created OBB to focus solely on our optical components product line and simple bench-top instruments. OBB's bench-top instruments currently consist of the Quattro luminescence spectrometer and 3 different EasyLife filter-based time-resolved fluorometers. They are so easy to use that literally anyone in your lab can operate them, and so affordable that any lab can now afford to do time-resolved luminescence. The EasyLife was initially developed and introduced by PTI, but is now available exclusively from OBB.
 
PTI remains a world class leading developer of modular fluorescence research instruments, including many time-resolved luminescence systems. In fact the only fluorometers in the world that are more sensitive than the Quattro are available exclusively from PTI. You can learn more about PTI's modular fluorescence research instruments at the following link www.pti-nj.com .
