Rainin Pos-D pipette dispenses difficult liquids

An Anachem product story
Edited by the Laboratorytalk editorial team Feb 5, 2010

The Rainin Pos-D positive-displacement pipette guarantees ease, speed, accuracy, precision and safety when dispensing viscous, volatile, corrosive or hazardous liquids.

It is an excellent pipetting tool for applications in biotechnology, clinical, food and industrial laboratories.

Rainin Pos-D uses disposable capillary piston tips to ensure sample security.

The piston moves within the plastic capillary, making direct contact with the liquid.

The positive wiping action of the piston against the capillary wall ensures complete dispensing without droplets.

With no elastic air space to expand or contract, the aspiration force remains constant, unaffected by the physical properties of the sample.

This means even very viscous or high-density liquids such as 50 per cent glycerol solutions, detergents, oil, syrup or even toothpaste can be easily pipetted with accuracy and precision.

The risk of pipette damage from aggressive solvents is eliminated as the sample or its vapours can not come into contact with internal parts.

Similarly there is no risk of contaminating the pipette when working with hazardous materials such as radioactive compounds.

Eliminating cross contamination is also a major advantage for applications such as PCR, forensics and diagnostics.

The pre-assembled capillary tips are easy to use and also fit Gilson Microman.

They are all supplied pre-sterilised and ready racked at low prices.
