Rapid Variable Pathlength UV-Vis Analysis for Biopharmaceutical Laboratories

If your biopharmaceutical laboratory is losing hours to tedious sample dilutions and manual pipetting errors, the Agilent Cary 60 UV-Vis spectrophotometer paired with the CTech SoloVPE system delivers a revolutionary, dilution-free solution for protein quantification. By combining the Cary 60’s highly stable, long-lasting xenon flash lamp (covering a 190–1,100 nm wavelength range) with SoloVPE’s patented Variable Pathlength Technology (VPT), this system automatically adjusts the optical pathlength in real time to accurately measure highly concentrated samples without manual dilution steps. This innovative approach slashes sample preparation times while guaranteeing exceptional analytical precision, making it an indispensable asset for high-throughput bioprocess monitoring, monoclonal antibody (mAb) concentration measurements, and formulation development. It is the gold-standard, robust setup for biotechnology and regulated pharmaceutical facilities looking to eliminate human error, maximize workflow efficiency, and achieve repeatable biomolecule characterization.

Agilent Cary 60 Price and Cost of Ownership: Reliable Performance at Lower Cost

The Agilent Cary 60 UV-Vis Spectrophotometer with Agilent SoloVPE System provides a highly efficient and cost-effective UV-Visible spectroscopy solution for pharmaceutical, biotechnology, bioprocessing, and research laboratories requiring rapid concentration analysis and variable pathlength measurement workflows. Certified pre-owned systems typically range from approximately $24,000 to $32,000, offering substantial savings compared to comparable new configurations such as the Agilent Cary 60 UV-Vis with PATsmart CTech SoloVPE PLUS System, which commonly range from approximately $125,000 to $145,000 depending on software packages and automation options. In addition to acquisition costs, laboratories should consider ongoing operational expenses such as validation standards, fiber optic probes, consumable accessories, software support, preventive maintenance, optical calibration services, and compliance-related qualification support for USP <857>, FDA, ISO, and cGMP workflows. Long-term ownership considerations may also include xenon lamp replacement, detector servicing, SoloVPE optical component maintenance, replacement electronic components, and optional service agreements to maintain dependable absorbance accuracy and analytical reproducibility in high-throughput laboratory environments. Purchasing a certified pre-owned Agilent Cary 60 UV-Vis Spectrophotometer with SoloVPE allows laboratories to significantly reduce ownership costs while still benefiting from dilution-free concentration analysis, rapid UV-Vis measurements, low maintenance operation, and proven long-term analytical performance for regulated and research-based laboratory applications.

Agilent Cary 60 UV-VIS Spectrophotometer with SoloVPE for Protein Concentration

The Agilent Cary 60 UV-Vis Spectrophotometer paired with the SoloVPE Variable Pathlength Extension provides a highly accurate and efficient solution for protein concentration analysis across biopharmaceutical, biotechnology, and life science laboratories. By combining the Cary 60’s rapid xenon flash-lamp technology and exceptional photometric performance with Repligen CTech’s patented SoloVPE variable pathlength measurement capability, the system enables direct determination of protein concentration without sample dilution, even for highly concentrated protein solutions. This approach significantly reduces sample preparation time, minimizes dilution errors, and improves analytical reproducibility while conserving valuable samples. The SoloVPE technology automatically adjusts the optical pathlength to maintain measurements within the instrument’s optimal absorbance range, allowing accurate quantification across a broad concentration range using UV absorbance at 280 nm. The result is faster workflow execution, improved data quality, and enhanced laboratory productivity compared to traditional fixed-pathlength UV-Vis methods. For protein therapeutics, monoclonal antibodies, vaccines, and other biologics, the Agilent Cary 60 with SoloVPE delivers reliable, high-throughput protein concentration measurements that support process development, quality control, and regulatory compliance requirements.
