If specified at the time of order, the MPM-100 can now be supplied with SPAD® units or CCI units for chlorophyll measurement. At the time of purchase the MPM-100 can be ordered with two alternative filter sets fitted, to give the chlorophyll content measurements in either SPAD® units or CCI units.

MPM-100 Multi-pigment-meter.

MPM-100 is a compact hand held meter which uses a combination of proven techniques to measure different plant pigments simultaneously. The MPM-100 uses ratio fluorescence to measure anthocyanin content and flavonol content, and leaf transmission in the far red and near infra-red to measure chlorophyll content.

The resulting chlorophyll content and flavonol content readings are used to determine the nitrogen balance index.

The meter has a high resolution, colour, touch screen display and 4GB of non-volatile flash memory.

A USB port is supplied for data download of comma delineated files.

Data can be saved as discrete single measurements or averages of 2 to 8 samples with either mean or median saved.

COVID-19 response

As of 17:00 this evening, the ADC offices will be closed to outside visitors in an attempt to reduce the potential exposure risk to its employees, and the wider community, to COVID-19. At the moment, we are expecting the shutdown to last, until the end of May. During this time some manufacturing, sales and technical support staff are working from home. Please understand that during this period it may take longer than usual to respond to requests. We continue to evaluate the situation and will update you if the circumstances change. Please stay safe.

COVID-19 response

COVID-19 response.
While being sensible of Government guidance and protecting our workforce and customers, ADC BioScientific Ltd. is continuing to operate from its HQ office in Hoddesdon, UK. We remain here to support you in anyway that we can.
We are confident that collectively we can weather this storm and continue to achieve our objectives.

We are aware that several ADC customer support centres are now working out of the office for the foreseeable future, but they remain in contact and are providing remote support.


We are treating this as a fluid situation and will update you if our response changes. I wish everyone well. Please stay safe.
