Competitive quality, yet more environmentally conscious.
Application Area:General molecular biology work
"In the last 25 years of my work, I have used so many different brands of tips, I have my favorite and hated ones. However, every workplace has their own established supply chain and if you are not the lab manager, you just have to get used to the tips traditionally provided to the lab. One of my least favorable tips, are those giant stacked boxes of 192 tips in each layer. They take so much space on the bench and the lids are loose, so they take extra space when you have to take them off and place somewhere. So the Biotix tips gave an extremely refreshing experience when I received them as a sample. Even comparing them to the typical single 96-tip boxes, I would still recommend them over other brands. Biotix are advertized for their low-retention technology, where pipetted liquids (even high viscosity ones) can be fully dispensed from the tip without leaving residue (and introducing pipetting error). It is absolutely true! I saw these tips in action and I saw the effect using them with my own hands. They fit most of Pipette brands and compete with more expensive brand tips. I also like the boxes: they are thinner, so they use less plastic than other brands, and they are translucent, so they are easier to recycle. But don’t worry, the boxes are not those flimsy film-like boxes you saw from other brands trying to advertize less waste. You may know those frustrating boxes that are so soft that they squash and flip over when you try to get a tip, flipping all the remaining 95 tips all over the bench and floor. Biotix boxes are still sturdy and they have wider foot preventing flipping. The boxes and the tips show that they were well designed and tested. They have re-loads available, so you can re-use the box, but do not have to load each tip painstakingly by hand. I would switch to them any time. Now I just have to convince my purchasing department."

Application Area:Biotechnology research and development
"We love using Biotix uTIPs! We have a variety of different types of pipets in the lab ranging from VWR to Rainin (universal fit) to Gilsons, these tips fit them all. With over 800 pipets in my lab used by 50 different scientists, it is difficult to find consumables that please everyone, but the Biotix uTIPs do! Everyone loves that the racks are recyclable, we can reuse and re-autoclave them several times before they start showing wear. the 1000ul fit great and the 200ul refills fit onto the P200 and P20 pipets. We use these as our primary tip type in my lab."

Application Area:Protein and gene expression in murine tissue samples
"Over my research career I've used about 8-10 different pipet tips. By far the Biotix tips have something above all the others. Just by the way the tip fits into the pipette is well thought out, the pipette fits in with no fight and is more of a slide action than a punch in action and I love it. Even with working with viscous substances such as PCR mixes, where other tips would leave several uL at the end of the tip, Biotix tips have designed them in such a way for minimal retention. All in all these are great tips and would definitely purchase yet."

The low retention tips are cheap and work fine, but not well for volumes below 2-3µL
Application Area:General pipeting
"The fact that the tips are low retention is great for not having samples stick to the sides of the tip. When used with Rainin LTS pipets, the FlexFit seal nullifies one advantage of using official LTS tips from Rainin, which is low tip ejection force. This could be mitigated by not pressing down as hard on the tip as Biotix trains people to do, but it can result in an inconsistent seal, especially with multichannel pipets. There is also a little more inconsistency in the shape of the tip compared to Rainin LTS tips, which becomes more obvious when used with multichannel pipets. My primary complaint is that when pipetting low volumes (less than 2-3µL), there seems to be inaccuracy as the vacuum created by the air displacement must overcome greater resistance due to the low retention characteristics. If a good price can be found on the tips, then I would recommend Biotix Low Retention Filter Tips featuring X-Resin® for pipetting volumes from 3-20µL."

New cost cutting design has sacrificed what used to be a good product
Application Area:Cell culture in vitro assays.
"About 6 months ago, I left a glowing review for this product. Unfortunately, recent changes have lead me to change my mind. The old version of Biotix were fantastic however the product was recently redesigned. A flimsier plastic has replaced the material for the lid and box and now the lid falls off easily spilling the tips everywhere. The plastic tip holder inside the box is also weakly supported so picking up one tip can lift the whole box. The bottom line is that Biotix has made the decision to cut corners on their product quality in order to save money. It's very frustrating that they would change what used to be a great product"

Great tips... not the best rack.
Application Area:Small volume liquid handling
"These tips are great. The Resin clearly lets you know when you have drawn up too much sample. The value for the price is good. There is very little retention in the tip. The only downside to these tips are the racks. They are pretty unstable and the lids are hard to take on and off. While environmentally friendly, they could be a bit more stable as most labs do recycle these days."
Manufacturer's ResponseSusan, thank you for your time and feedback. We’re glad to hear you’re benefitting from our high performance resin. It’s clear you recognize our dedication to our environment as we developed a rack using nearly 40% less plastic than competitor racks. Though our racks are lightweight, they are purposefully designed with a larger base footprint than the rack cover to avoid rack tip-over. The lids are engineered to be both removable and re-attachable. We appreciate your time and would like to understand more about your issue. Please email info@biotix so we can learn more and address your needs. We value our customers and strive for ultimate customer satisfaction.

This is inconvenient however in the 192 stackable casings it was much easier to desired number of tips onto the multi channel pipettes."
Manufacturer's ResponseDear valued customer, firstly, we are really happy you like using our tips. We would like to better understand your rack-related challenge- first by learning which rack your tips are in. Would you be able to share the cat number and lot number with us (or a photo)? We have not heard this specific concern before so we want to make sure you are reviewing a Biotix tip rack. Starting last year we began rolling out a new rack, to which we modified a second a time. The current rack has a detachable lid along with some really great convenience-related updates. We want to make sure you have an opportunity to see the new rack. May we send you a sample upon your reply back? We look forward to hearing back. Sincerely, the Biotix Product Managment Team

Racks could be better
Application Area:basic lab use of tips
"The tips are awesome. The racks are not the greatest. They do not have very good stability and the lids are difficult to open unless you remove the lid entirely."
Manufacturer's ResponseDear valued customer, firstly, we are really happy you like using our tips. We would like to better understand your rack-related challenge- first by learning which rack your tips are in. Would you be able to share the cat number and lot number with us (or a photo)? We have not heard this specific concern before so we want to make sure you are reviewing a Biotix tip rack. Starting last year we began rolling out a new rack, to which we modified a second a time. The current rack has a detachable lid along with some really great convenience-related updates. We want to make sure you have an opportunity to see the new rack. May we send you a sample upon your reply back? We look forward to hearing back. Sincerely, the Biotix Product Managment Team

Pretty good tips, great pricing
Application Area:General laboratory use/ various aplications
"Great product. The only thing I would change is color coding of the boxes, so you can easily distinguish between the sizes. Right now all the inserts are the same color."
Manufacturer's ResponseThanks for the great feedback! While we have not made a formal announcement yet, we are happy to share that we are currently adding color-coded snap cards to our new racks. This is a rolling change as inventory moves out, but you should start seeing new colors as well as the new rack soon! The new rack is clear so you can visually see the tip size and inkjet lettering on the top cover states the volume, reorder part number, and lot number for traceability. The new color coded inserts make tip identification even easier: Blue inserts for large tips, green for 300ul and 250ul (xTIP for Rainin LTS), yellow for 200ul, and red for small tips In addition, the new rack has a stable SBS footprint, is “nestable” and has a removable/hinged lid for easy access. The new Biotix rack has even less plastic than before, is 100% recyclable, and can be reused (autoclave up to 100 times) as a manual/automation 96-well reservoir. Stay tuned for more!

Pipette tip - good for everyday use.
Application Area:We use this product everyday in the lab.
"These pipette tips are a great value for their money although they do not fit on all of our Gilson pipettes (P20). We still have to buy additional tips."
Manufacturer's ResponseWe are pleased you find our tips to be a valuable asset in your research. We are concerned about your review however because Biotix Universal tips fit the Gilson P20. Our Biotix Cobra pipettor is actually manufactured by Gilson, so our tips have been rigorously tested on Gilson pipettes. Is your review about the xTIP Pipette Tip by Biotix? If so, these are designed to fit the Rainin Lite Touch style pipettes, a previously closed system that has a different shaped shaft cone. So our xTIP tips will not fit well on universal pipettes with the universal shaped shaft cone. We do have a full line of Biotix Universal tips including the M-0011-9SC 10XL tip for universal fit pipettes. Would you mind getting back to us and letting us know if this addresses your issue? And if this is the issue, we would be happy to send you some samples of our Biotix universal tips upon your reply. If not, can you please provide more details on the issues you are experiencing including the lot number? We want

Quality, uniform, and worry free product.
Application Area:Enzymatic analysis on wine for sugar and Malic Acid content
"These tips are high quality. We never have a problem with liquid remaining in the tip. They are fairly uniform. We have used other brands that occasionally would not have a hole at the tip and would not work. We have not experienced this with Biotix."

Good quality products and generous sales rep.
Application Area:Molecular biology and cell biology assays
"Good valuable product. The company is generous. When we asked for sample, they sent us different sizes of the tips. The package is nice as well. However, most of our researchers choose to purchase another brand. Sorry about that. "

These tips are easy to eject.
Application Area:Aspirate or dispense liquids.
"I liked these pipette tips because they are easy to remove from my pipette. They come off easily after I use the tip ejector button. Often, I find with other pipette tips, that they don't come off when I click the tip ejector button. As a result, with other tips I have to remove the other pipette tips by hand."

Wish I had known about these tips sooner!
Application Area:Measuring expensive chemicals for Hyperpolarised Magnetic Resonance Imaging
"We are just starting to use the low retention pipette tips. Considering we are using some chemicals that cost between $15,000 and $20,000 per gram, the low retention is great. I no longer have to shake the last few drops of liquid down to the bottom of the pipette tip."

Good basic bulk pipette tips.
Application Area:Liquid handling for qRT-PCR and other high specificity assays.
"I purchased a stack of tips to use with multi-channel pipettes. This is the only style of box that fits well with my 12 channel p20 from Gilson. The tips work as tips should work. I've had no slipping or loose fits or trouble with retention. They are slightly more expensive than other options available to us but we continue to purchase these because of the fit issues we have with other companies boxes and our multi-channels."

Awesome tips that I will buy for all future use!
Application Area:Immunoassay measurement of proinflammatory cytokines in serum.
"These are great tips. We've tried numerous others and found that we got consistently lower CVs between replicate wells in our assays in utilizing the Biotix tips vs others. When the assays are costing us hundreds and we have limited sample, these tips are well worth the money and I would highly recommend."
