Export Data
You can export spectra and results for selected measurements to these formats:
• measurement results only to comma-separated values spreadsheet (.csv) file
• spectral data only (absorbance value at each wavelength) to tab-separated values
spreadsheet (.tsv) file
• spectral data to tsv file and measurement results to csv file
• NanoDrop One database (.sql) file containing spectra and measurement results that can
be opened from the instrument or from the NanoDrop One Viewer software
• spectral data to xml spreadsheet (.xml) file
The filenames are the same as the experiment names. Use any spreadsheet or word processing
application to open a CSV, TSV or XML file. The SQL file can be opened only using our
NanoDrop One Viewer software, and only after the file has been imported. The XML file can
also be opened with an XML reader application.
