Fluorescence and Absorbance Spectrometer
Duetta™ is a 3-in-1 spectrofluorometer that combines the functions of fluorescence and absorbance spectrometers simultaneously. Thanks to its high-speed, built-in CCD detector, the Duetta can acquire a full spectrum from 250 nm to 1,100 nm in less than one second, making it the fastest fluorescence spectrometer on the market.
Duetta uses A-TEEM™ technology to acquire absorbance, transmission, and fluorescence EEMs simultaneously – a true 3-in-1 instrument that corrects for the inner filter effect on the fly.
Data acquisition is more accurate because measurements are taken from the same spot without moving the sample and repeating the exercise.
To aid in the use of the Duetta and teach fluorescence spectroscopy principles in an undergraduate teaching laboratory setting, we have made a series of education labs. Designed to teach some of the most important concepts in fluorescence spectroscopy, these education labs can be used as is, or tailored to fit the needs of any undergraduate laboratory. To learn more about these labs, please visit Duetta Education Labs.

The Future of Fluorescence
Duetta can be used as a fluorometer, as a UV-Vis-NIR spectrometer to measure absorbance, or as an instrument that measures true molecular fingerprints, which require the acquisition of fluorescence and absorbance, correcting for IFE in real time.
Duetta’s ultra-fast, state-of-the-art CCD technology allows it to outperform, by orders of magnitude, any competitor using PMTs. It’s the fastest bench-top fluorometer in the world, and the only fluorometer that can acquire a full spectrum in less than 100 milliseconds! This state-of-the-art CCD technology also extends NIR wavelength detection to 1,100 nm, well beyond the limit of a standard PMT fluorometer.
Having the highest level of fluorescence sensitivity means that Duetta’s optimized design lets you measure lower concentrations of a sample, and provides better quality data.
Duetta debuts HORIBA’s new generation software interface with touch-screen utility, and a selection of Apps for routine analysis.

Duetta’s two specialized sample detectors collect fluorescence at right angles to the excitation light, and absorbance straight through the sample.
IFE limits the linearity of the fluorescence signal at higher sample concentrations due to primary and secondary re-absorption of fluorescence. Duetta’s unique design applies real time IFE correction to obtain absolute fluorescence spectra at higher sample concentrations.
Ergonomic, Hands Free, Sample Access
Duetta’s CCD detection takes a snapshot of the entire fluorescence emission spectrum from 250 to 1,100 nm. (So not only is it much faster but it also gives you much more information than the competition.)
Near Infrared applications are growing rapidly, and Duetta is ready to meet the challenge with fluorescence detection from 250 to 1,100 nm, well beyond the reach of standard PMTs.

Lamp cartridges are pre-aligned at the factory, guaranteeing perfect alignment upon snap-in replacement. No tools or service are required.
Switching from one type of sample holder to another could not be easier.
Without any tools or cables, Duetta’s spill-proof sample accessory trays are identified by EzSpec software, enable electrical power for the appropriate module (e.g. 4-position Peltier holder), and read an enabled
sensor (e.g. temperature), if available.
Duetta includes excitation and emission cut off filters for automated elimination of second order grating effects, which otherwise interfere with the fluorescence signal of interest.
EEMs Acquired in Seconds
Excitation Emission Matrix (EEM) acquired in 1 second, shows no second order scattering.

Duetta supports applications in a wide variety of fields
Pyrene in a solution of A-B-A triblock copolymer micelles is solvated in the hydrophobic core solvent environment. 3D EEMs can be shown in contour, waterfall plot, or 2D overlay mode.
BSA protein measured from 5° C to 60° C and the peak intensity and peak wavelength are plotted vs. temperature of the protein solution. Measured using the SampleSnap-4Pelt 4-position Peltier temperature-controlled cuvette holder.
Polymer Aggregation and Structure. Temperature dependent spectra showing polymer micellization.
A. Kinetic spectral scans of native BSA protein with rapidly added ANS (3x10-6 M). Spectra taken every 100 ms after ANS addition. As ANS binds to native BSA, the BSA Trp emission decreases and the ANS emission increases as a result of FRET due to proximity of excited Trp and ANS.
B. Kinetic spectral scans of SDS-denatured BSA after addition of ANS. Much higher ANS concentration (4x10-5 M) is required to affect binding to enatured BSA; no FRET is observed due to increased distances between ANS and Trp.
Emission spectra of a series of glass materials containing different lanthanides. Measured using the SampleSnap-Uni solid sample holder.
Comparison of bovine serum albumin protein and the same protein denatured by sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS). The emission peak narrows and shifts 15 nm to the blue.
