PIPETBOY GENIUS

INTEGRA Biosciences has played a pivotal role in advancing the field of serological pipetting over the last 40 years and has just published an article covering the history of serological pipette controller development. The resource provides a concise overview of the advances that have shaped the field in the last few decades.

Serological pipettes have been used since the 1800s, but the first serological pipette controller was not released until the 1970s. INTEGRA’s PIPETBOY serological pipette controller was introduced in 1981, and has gone through various upgrades since then.

The latest milestone in this journey is the new PIPETBOY GENIUS serological pipette controller, which incorporates numerous novel and unique features to enhance the pipetting experience. When used with INTEGRA’s range of serological pipettes, the device features a repeat dispense function that allows users to quickly and accurately deliver multiple aliquots of the same volume from a single aspiration.

Moreover, the combination of the PIPETBOY GENIUS and INTEGRA serological pipettes offers built-in overfill protection to minimize filter contamination and ensure uninterrupted pipetting sessions.
