Eppendorf pipettes

About the instruments

Often, a researcher will want to quickly dispense reagents into 24, 48, or 96 well plates without needing to set up a reagent dispensing robot. These pipettes from Eppendorf enable simple, rapid air-displacement pipetting of liquids from 5-1200 μL into 96-well plates and other formats. Electronic pipettes come with complex programs such as multi-dispense modes, automated mixing, and automatic dispensing. In addition, we have an electronic Eppendorf positive-displacement repeater pipette capable of dispensing viscous or volatile liquids from 1 μl to 50 ml in one or many dispenses. An adjustable-spacing pipette is available for reformatting samples or for quick dispensing into 24- and 48-well plates. The pipettes use polypropylene tips and are not amenable to use with all chemicals.
