Rainin Low Retention Tips
Rainin LR low retention tips improve pipetting accuracy by minimizing residual volume, particularly when transferring liquids such as viscous samples and those with low surface tension. Available for both Rainin LTS and universal-fit liquid ends in volumes ranging from 10 µL - 1000 µL in racks, refills and bulk packaging.

Rainin LR tips prevent samples from interacting with the polypropylene surface of the tip. METTLER TOLEDO employs a unique manufacturing process to produce tips with a uniform field of highly-repellent fluoropolymer molecules that form an impenetrable "superhydrophobic” electron field. The result: liquids and molecules are suspended above the tip surface, allowing problem liquids to glide effortlessly in and out of the tip.
Not all low retention tips are created equally
More common manufacturing methods - dipping or tumbling tips in a fluoropolymer bath - can produce tips with incomplete and uneven layers of fluoropolymer that are more likely to clog or leach. What’s more, tips made with “diamond polished” molds - often promoted as low retention - do nothing to prevent samples from reacting with the polypropylene and binding to the surface.

Selecting the right pipette: Optimizing your workflow
Selecting the right pipette for laboratory tasks is critical, highlighting the significance of pipetting accuracy and efficiency throughout scientific and medical research.
In this white paper, Rainin provides an overview of the two major categories of pipettes – air displacement and positive displacement – and offers tips for optimal pipette use based on specific workflow requirements.
Selecting the right pipette
Pipetting accuracy and efficiency are paramount in any laboratory setting. The ability to handle and transfer small volumes of liquid using a pipette is fundamental to numerous scientific and medical procedures. Therefore, selecting the correct pipette and using the proper technique is paramount. Choosing a suitable pipette for a specific application can significantly impact throughput and workflow, ultimately leading to improved results and increased productivity. METTLER TOLEDO provides an overview of the common types of pipettes and gives valuable tips on how to get the best out of your pipette depending on your workflow.
Optimizing Pipetting Workflows in Regulated Laboratories
Pipettes are the workhorses of the laboratory, in use day in, day out, for long periods of time. But how much thought do you give to pipettes, tips and pipetting techniques? This white paper provides all of the different and necessary details that should be considered when aiming to optimize a workflow in a regulated laboratory.
