What is ClipTip technology?

ClipTip technology ensures pipette tips lock securely into place with a light touch and remain sealed until intentionally ejected. This prevents tips from falling off and ensures consistent sealing for accurate pipetting.

Is this pipette suitable for sterile applications?

While the pipette itself can be sterilised (e.g., autoclaved), its suitability for specific sterile applications depends on the user's protocols and the use of sterile tips and reagents. Always confirm with the seller regarding specific sterilisation compatibility.

What maintenance is typically required for this type of pipette?

Routine maintenance for manual pipettes typically involves regular cleaning, calibration checks, and occasional replacement of seals or O-rings. It is advisable to follow the manufacturer's recommended service schedule.

Can this pipette be used with any brand of pipette tips?

No, this pipette is designed specifically for use with ClipTip compatible tips, such as the ClipTip 1000. Using non-compatible tips may result in poor sealing, inaccurate volumes, or damage to the pipette.

What does '96 format' mean?

A '96 format' pipette, particularly a 12-channel model, is designed for efficient liquid transfer into 96-well microplates. Each dispense can fill one row or column of a standard 96-well plate.
