Handling and Cleaning the Cuvette
This is used for the measurement (Transmittance) of liquid samples. All efforts should be
made to prevent scratches and contaminants from contacting the surface of the cuvette.
We recommend that you wear gloves when handling the cuvette and grasp it from the
opaque sides only.
WARNING
Handle with care by grasping the opaque sides only. Do not scratch the surface with
abrasive cleaning materials. Only use materials appropriate for the cleaning of optical
glass.
The cuvette is made of optical glass. It is recommended that standard methods
applicable to the cleaning of optical glass cuvettes be used as required between the
measurements of different samples.
