The Pipeline dispenser eliminates the tedious nature of hand-operated pipetting for large-scale cell culture.
To operate, the user simply snaps in a sterile Peripette (Peristaltic Pipette), lifts the pump head mechanism, inserts the source bottle and lowers the assembly. After setting the desired volume, the user places the destination container under the output spout and initiates the dispenser. Pipeline then performs the fluid transfer in a one-step operation. This saves time and reduces the stirring, repetitive motions (aspirate, move and dispense) as required for hand pipetting. Additionally, the dispenser is ready to repeat the process, as many times as is needed, until the source bottle is empty.
With increased efficiency and high throughput capabilities, Pipeline facilitates repetitive laboratory tasks. For example, Pipeline provides a fast and accurate means for preparing multiple aliquots of a common reagent. Pipeline is also compatible with dispensing cells and suitable for use in cell culture. In multi-step procedures, one can use an aspirator along with the Pipeline to exchange cell culture media, solutions and reagents without the need to change multiple pipettes.
