Universal Pipette Tips are autoclavable and designed to fit most common pipettes

Universal Pipette Tips are autoclavable and designed to fit most common pipettes. They are filtered and sterile, and free from DNase, RNase, Human DNA, Pyrogens and PCR Inhibitors making them ideally suited to highly sensitive PCR work.
Purchasing high quality, properly fitting tips will save you time, money and health issues such as RSI.
Polypropylene
Polypropylene is a versatile, engineered plastic that is utilized in many manufacturing applications. It is a common component of plastic pieces involved in electrical wiring and components, as well as general equipment, appliances, automobiles, upholstery and fabrics.
It has excellent fatigue resistance and elasticity, which is important for plastic materials that must endure repeated use. Additionally, it is a good electrical insulator. It also has low water absorption characteristics and doesn’t react with acids.
These features help prevent sample contamination and the loss of valuable pipetting liquid. DIAMOND tips are manufactured with a hub shoulder that is calculated to fit the tip-holder, resulting in a tight seal with minimal force required for loading and ejection. The tips are also RNase/DNase and pyrogen free. They are packaged in a sealed, sterile pouch that can be autoclaved.
Wide Bore
Even the most calibrated pipettor will lose precision if it uses the wrong type of tip. Using the wrong tips can result in contamination, waste of precious samples or reagents and even cause lab staff physical harm in the form of repetitive stress injury (RSI).
Universal fit pipette tips can be used with multichannel and single pipettors from many different manufacturers. These tips have a soft hub that can adapt to proprietary barrel geometries and prevent tip-to-pipettor misalignment.
Some universal tips feature a polypropylene blend with heightened hydrophobic properties that repel liquids and prevent viscous or low surface tension liquids from spreading out and wetting the wall of the tip, increasing accuracy and data quality. Alternatively, some have silicone coatings to protect the inner surface from contamination.
Graduated
Designed to fit universal-style pipettes, these tips are flexible at the proximal end and fit securely around pipettor barrels that differ slightly in diameter. They feature graduation markings, so users can quickly check that they have correctly inserted the tip.
Typically made from high-grade polypropylene, these tips are free of any additives that can contaminate samples. They are also sterile and autoclavable, making them ideal for sensitive applications such as sequencing, PCR, protein analysis, and loading agarose gels.
They are available in various volumes and come in a variety of packaging options, including bulk, racked, eco-friendly reloads, and flip-top boxes. They are certified as RNase, DNase, human DNA, and pyrogen-free. This allows them to be used across multiple studies with utmost confidence and consistency.
Ergonomic
Whether aspirating or dispensing, most pipetting tasks require the use of thumb muscles. This can lead to excessive force and contribute to postural stress – particularly in the shoulder, elbow, and hand.
Ergonomic design is about more than just force measurement data. Using anthropometric data, manufacturers can incorporate features to optimize the design and performance of a product.
Universal fit tips are typically flexible at their proximal end to ensure a snug fit around all types of pipette barrels without compromising accuracy. This feature also allows tips to withstand higher volumes with less strain.
Filter
Filter tips prevent aerosols and liquids from aspirating into the body of the pipette, preventing cross-contamination. They are sterile and pre-sterilized and certified DNase/RNase, Endotoxin/Pyrogen Free, Human DNA Free, and PCR Inhibitors free. They are also Non-Cytotoxic and Non-Hemolytic.
They feature a fine point that reduces the tip surface area to minimize sample adhesion and can be used for a wide range of applications. They are able to withstand organic solvents and are chemically resistant.
Ergonomic tips are designed to fit comfortably around a pipettor barrel, and they require less insertion and ejection forces than standard tips. This helps to reduce RSI (Repetitive Stress Injury). They have graduation markings for precise volume measurement and are manufactured to ensure consistency in dimensions, giving you more robust results.
