INTEGRA Biosciences provides an extensive range of multichannel and electronic pipettes – as well as robotic-assisted platforms – to help increase the throughput of your cell culture workflows.

Switching to electronic pipettes or automated systems has been proven to offer significant advantages over manual processes, providing reproducible results with fewer handling errors, while eliminating the painstaking work of repetitive liquid handling.

INTEGRA has a variety of solutions to meet your liquid handling needs, whether you’re looking to upscale to a multichannel pipette or increase your throughput with automation. The company’s range of sophisticated 4 to 384 handheld multichannel pipettes allows you to simultaneously pipette entire rows, columns or even plates at the same time for greater throughput. With INTEGRA electronic pipettes, you can program and store pipetting protocols and mixing routines for use across various workflows.

To save researchers even more time, samples and reagents can be easily transferred from one labware format to another using INTEGRA’s VOYAGER electronic adjustable tip spacing pipette, for faster pipetting and higher throughput with fewer transcription errors. For the most efficient workflow, these electronic pipettes can be used in conjunction with the ASSIST PLUS pipetting robot. This set-up combines the flexibility of handheld pipettes with the throughput of automation, offering a compact walk-away solution for error-free liquid handling. This approach can help you to upscale your throughput at an affordable price, without losing the flexibility of handheld pipetting.

Accelerate reformatting of plates, e.g. 96 well plates to 384 well plates, transfers from racked tubes into microplates or filling pockets of Agarose gels. The VOYAGER electronic pipettes feature a colour display and an intuitive touch wheel user interface. This enables quickest volume changes and easy, ergonomic modification of pipetting parameters. Ten predefined protocols are available, such as Repeat Dispense, Serial Dilute, Sample Mix. In addition, up to 20 customized protocols can be created and stored on the pipette. VOYAGER Adjustable Tip Spacing Pipette Features & Benefits:  Electronically adjustable tip spacing accelerates plate reformatting and sample transfers between different lab ware formats. Unique tip fitting design ensures that tips snap into place and will not accidently fall off. GripTips attach the same way each and every time to enable precise touching off. Intuitive touch wheel interface for rapid volume setting and easy programming. Available Models: 4-channel 6-channel 8-channel 12-channel
