Choose between bulk and rack-packed formats to meet your labs throughput and organizational needs. Transparent or color-coded options facilitate quick identification and workflow efficiency.
FAQs of Beveled 20l Filter Tip:
Q: How does the hydrophobic polyethylene filter in the Beveled 20l Filter Tip prevent contamination during liquid transfer?
A: The hydrophobic polyethylene filter acts as a barrier that traps aerosols and prevents liquids or biological contaminants from entering the pipette shaft, reducing the risk of cross-contamination between samples during pipetting.
Q: What are the main benefits of using tips with a beveled end design?
A: A beveled end improves accuracy and enables precise dispensing, particularly in small-volume transfers. It minimizes sample retention and allows for smoother aspiration and dispensing of liquids, which is crucial in molecular biology and clinical settings.
Q: When should I choose sterile tips over non-sterile ones for laboratory procedures?
A: Sterile tips are recommended whenever you need to avoid introducing contaminants, such as RNase, DNase, or pyrogens, especially in sensitive protocols like PCR, cell culture, or RNA handling. Non-sterile tips are suitable for less critical applications or preparatory work.
Q: Where can I use these universal filter tips in my laboratory setup?
A: The Beveled 20l Filter Tips fit almost all standard micropipettes available in the market, making them suitable for workflows across research, diagnostic, and clinical laboratories that require precise measurement and contamination control.
Q: What process ensures traceability and quality assurance for each tip?
A: Each batch of tips comes with lot numbering, allowing laboratories to trace product origins for quality audits, compliance, and consistent performance verification throughout their shelf life.
Q: How do the low retention surface treatments offered by manufacturers benefit my experiments?
A: Low retention coatings or treatments reduce the tendency of samples to stick to the inner surface of the tip, ensuring more accurate volume delivery, maximal sample recovery, and minimal waste in critical assays.
