Round cuvette

This question is often answered in science using a technique called spectrophotometry. This tool allows us to visualize what percentage of light is radiated at a specific wavelength or color. Each substance, be it a solid or a liquid, may absorb a different color of light. Each material has its own special characteristics that enable it to load light. A round cuvette is a small round container that we use to hold our samples when we are doing spectrophotometry. It is small like a test tube and can be made with different materials which help us achieve optimal results. 

When we put a sample in a cuvette, we can measure how much light passing through it. This quantification is known as transmittance. Alternatively, we can measure the amount of light absorbed by the sample — this is called absorbance. Finally, although a round cuvette glass can only hold a little bit of liquid, this small volume is ideal for obtaining precise measurements in our experiments.

Benefits and Limitations of a round cuvette in Laboratory Analysis

-- Glass cuvettes: These are the most common selection among scientists due to their durability and ability to resist high temperatures.  Glass cuvettes tend to be less expensive than other materials as well. Drawback of glass cuvettes: Glass can absorb certain wavelengths of light. Sometimes this displaces something in the results of our experiments. 

Plastic cuvettes: These Jinke Optical cuvettes are versatile and disposable, which makes them a good choice for some experiments. That means we do not have a lot of trouble after using them, because we can casually discard them, and do not have to worry about cleaning. Plastic cuvette are also less prone to breakage than glass cuvettes. However, they can be sensitive to temperature changes, so they may not be effective for all of the individual experiments we conduct.
