Properties of Absorbance and Turbidimetric Scattering Measurements in Photometry

Properties of Absorbance and Turbidimetric Scattering Measurements in Photometry content piece image

Photometric technology is commonly used to measure two different phenomena: photon absorption (absorbance) or photon scatter (turbidimetric). Understanding the difference between these two measurement types are especially important in assay development, data analysis and troubleshooting.
