The photometric accuracy of microplate readers can be checked using the calibration standard 666.013. The microplate reader standard has the same dimensions as a microplate and has windows with a 6.6 mm diameter at the same positions as the 96 wells. Neutral density glass strips with varying absorption values are located behind groups of 16 windows. All calibration standards come with a certificate of calibration.
Calibration Standard for Microplate Readers
666.013 Microplate reader calibration standard
| Type | Description | Nominal Absorbance | Absorbance at nm |
| 666.013 | Microplate Reader Calibration Standard, NG 11, NG 5, NG 4, NG 3 Certified | 0,25; 0,5; 1,0; 1,5; 2,5 | 405, 450, 490, 650 |
For checking the wavelength accuracy of microplate readers microplate reader standards are available, where a neutral density glass stripe is substituted by a homium oxid glass stripe (on customer request).
