Samples were evaluated for precise absorbance measurements using spectrophotometric analysis. As illustrated in the attached figure, sample volume significantly affected the optical density (OD) readings. Absorbance was measured at 600 nm, 750 nm, and 900 nm to observe gradual, wavelength-dependent variations. This approach highlighted both the expected spectral trends and the instrument's broad detection range across different wavelengths.
