About us
Science Meets Simplicity
Revolutionizing liquid analytics with UV-Vis spectroscopy solutions.
Welcome to Copenhagen Nanosystems
We deliver simple, intuitive and affordable liquid analytics to our customers using innovative UV-visible spectroscopy hardware and software tools.
UV-Vis Spectroscopy is one of the most versatile and widely used analytical methods in the world.
Our software and patented add-ons mean that existing UV-Vis instruments can measure concentration and size of many different compounds and particles for the first time.
Our products only require a conventional UV-Vis spectrophotometer, which makes it incredibly easy for users to enjoy an integrated and seamless digital lab-experience.
