For fluorescence analysis, McPherson offers:

Total Systems! Fluorescence is a major technique used in chemistry, pharmacology, pathology, biochemistry, and medicine. The McPherson Spectrofluorometer Model 750 measures low light level with excellent detection limits and has proven important in analytical procedures related to amino acids, i.e., tryptophan and phenylalanine and samples prepared by derivatization with chemicals such as OPA to form fluorophores.

DNA detection with Hoechts dye and the analysis of individual bases such as adenine and guanine are possible. Interesting applications are the measurement of peroxide in the ocean on research vessels and the measurement of aldehydes in the upper atmosphere via aircraft. McPherson fluorometers are also making important advances possible for the classification of tuberculosis related organisms.
