Ultra-short path quartz cells (0.1–5 mm) for high-concentration and strongly absorbing samples. Two-way clear windows, Japanese imported JGS1 fused silica. 0.1–0.5 mm cells are open-top (no cap); 1–5 mm cells include a PTFE lid.
Highly concentrated samples saturate standard 10 mm cells. Scuvette's short path cuvettes solve this with ultra-thin optical paths from 0.1 mm to 5 mm, letting you measure strong absorbers without dilution. The 0.1–0.5 mm cells are open-top; 1–5 mm cells include a PTFE lid. All are JGS1 fused silica for >83% transmittance.
These short path length cells are essential for dyes, pigments, and high-OD samples in photochemistry and process control. Need a flow version for continuous monitoring? See our flow-through cuvettes, including 0.5 mm and 1 mm short path flow cells. Compare path lengths in our path length guide.
A cell with 1–5 mm path length for measuring concentrated or strongly absorbing samples without dilution. Path length guide.
When absorbance exceeds about 1.0 at 10 mm; a shorter path lowers A into the accurate 0.1–1.0 range. Beer-Lambert selection.
Short path avoids dilution errors and reagent waste when you would otherwise dilute heavily. Buying guide.
Yes — JGS1 fused silica, same UV range, just a shorter window gap. UV cutoff.
Yes — screw-cap short path cells seal small volumes. Short-path screw cap.
Reduced path means lower volume; micro short-path for tiny concentrated samples. Micro cuvettes.
