It was found in this study that, following destruction of the kinetochore, the cell entered anaphase even though this chromosome was not properly ...

In a UV-Vis spec (I have one on the bench in my lab) you pass a beam through a sample and straight into a detector. In this case you are measuring the light that the sample transmits (or absorbs, it's the same process but a different way of reporting the ...
