1. Introduction 1. Introduction The UV-1 is a fixed wavelength UV monitor, consisting of a control unit and an optical unit that can be positioned up to 10 meters apart. A mercury lamp is the stable light source, furthermore a built-in reference cell eliminates baseline drift. The output signal can be recor- ded in either AU or %T. Sensitivity range between 0.01 and 2 AUFS, or (0-100%T). The UV-1 offers a range of three detection wavelengths: 254, 280 and 405 nm. In addition, five flow cells ar

General Description GE Healthcare LKB Monitor UV-1 consists of an optical unit 2.1 Basic principle containing the flow cell, lamp, filter assemblies and preamplifiers, and a control unit containing the signal processing circuits. The two units are connected via a multi-core cable hardwired from the control unit to the optical unit. Connection to the recorder and the mains supply is made via the control unit. The single path Monitor UV-1 is a dual beam instrument with

2. General Description Fig. 2 Block diagram The photocurrent from each detector is amplified in a pre-amplifier before passing to the signal processing circuitry in the control unit. If transmission is to be monitored, the signal passes directly to the low pass filter. If AU is to be monitored, the reference cell light intensity (IR) is compared with the sample cell intensity (IS) to form log (IR/IS) in a logarithmic circuit before passing to the low-pass filter. The signal finally passes to

4. Operation 4. Operation The UV-1 can be operated at either 254 nm, 280 nm or 405 nm. 4.1 Choice of The choice of wavelength will depend on the spectral properties of wavelength both the eluent and the substances to be detected. Proteins and poly- pep-tides containing aromatic amino acids are usually best detected at 280 and 254 nm. Nucleic acids and poly-nucleotides are usually best detected at 254 nm and ferroproteins i.e. hemoglobins, cytochrome and porphyrin derivatives at 405 nm. The UV-1
