About NADH (340 nm) Concentration from Absorbance

Use the Beer–Lambert law to convert an absorbance reading of NADH (340 nm) into molar concentration, using its extinction coefficient (6,220 M⁻¹cm⁻¹). The calculation uses c = A / (ε · l). Why this calculation counts: The Beer–Lambert law is only linear in a window (≈0.1–1.0 absorbance). Quantitation outside it, or with the wrong extinction coefficient, silently biases every concentration you report. NADH (340 nm): ε = 6,220 M⁻¹cm⁻¹ at the stated wavelength. Common pitfalls to avoid: using a molar ε with a mass concentration; wrong path length (not 1 cm); not blanking against the correct buffer. All maths runs locally in your browser; no data is ever sent to a server. That privacy is exactly why researchers link these calculators from protocols, theses and standard operating procedures.

Frequently asked questions

Any tips specific to this calculation?+

NADH (340 nm): ε = 6,220 M⁻¹cm⁻¹ at the stated wavelength. Also watch out for: using a molar ε with a mass concentration and reading absorbance above ~1.0 without diluting.

Is this nadh (340 nm) concentration from absorbance free to use?+

Yes. It is completely free, needs no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser — there are no usage limits.

What formula does it use?+

It uses c = A / (ε · l) The full worked example is shown beneath the result so you can verify each step.

What are the most common mistakes here?+

In UV-Vis spectroscopy, watch for: reading absorbance above ~1.0 without diluting; using a molar ε with a mass concentration; wrong path length (not 1 cm); not blanking against the correct buffer. This tool shows the working so you can catch these before they cost an experiment.
