A real game changer in our lab
Plate based assays
An easy to use robust electronic multichannel pipette. The automatic tip spacing adjustment allows for ease of movement between different plate formats. We use it frequently to move from 96-well stock blocks into 384-well assay plates and this avoids quadrants, making plate mapping easier. The motor drives are quite light and the clip tips mean that low pressure adding and ejection of tips is minimal force, making it much better for avoiding repetitive strain.

Can't live without the pipette; wonderful product.
384-well pipetting application
It is very easy to use. It is very useful for our application. There is no dripping of the sample and is wonderfully sealed after sample aspiration. For the price we paid, it is truly exceptional.

Try and feel it!
Analyze metabolites from tissue samples
I don't need to say many words about this product. The first thing which I have learned in the lab was how to use a pipette well and correctly. For several decades, I used many different pipettes from many top brands, followed by trend. It's a fundamental basic in most steps of research. I just felt in love with this pipette so much. This is really awesome.

Looking for a cost effective alternative to expensive automated sample handling?
The VOYAGER adjustable spacing pipettes provide efficient multichannel sample transfers using 4, 6, 8 or 12 samples at a time for fractions of the cost of automated sample handlers.
By allowing a user to change the pipettes tip spacing on the fly, the 12-channel VOYAGER enables scientists to transfer up to 12 samples at a time between labware of different sizes and configurations.
The simple push of a button on the patented Touch Wheel interface opens or closes the tips to a spacing defined by the user. The result is a level of flexibility currently delivered by single channel pipettes but with a vast improvement in efficiency and productivity. VOYAGER is the first and only handheld pipette that allows the transfer of samples between two different labware formats with one-handed operation.
VOYAGER 12-Channel Adjustable Tip Spacing Pipette Features & Benefits:
- Multichannel Adjustable Tip Spacing - Expand anywhere from 4.5 mm to 9 mm to accommodate a wide variety of micro plates, tube racks and gel boxes.
- Motorized Tip Movements - Offers high resolution tip spacing movements for optimal targeting; eliminates transcription errors when performing sample transfers. The motorized tip movement also allows for one hand operation.
- GripTip Pipette Tips - Tips that don’t fall off help eliminate precious reagent or sample waste. Tips that seal effortlessly to optimize accuracy and precision every time.
- Intuitive User Interface - Electronic pipettes have a common user interface making it easy enough to switch between both systems without a second thought.
- Convenient Pipette and Program Management - Pipettes can be connected to a computer via USB port. For laboratories with many users or power users with many pipetting protocols, all custom programs can be stored and backed up in a library on the computer.
Some VOYAGER Applications include:
- Sample reformatting (96 to 384 or test tubes to microwell plates)
- PCR Reaction Setup
- ELISA sample transfers
- Taqman Assay Setup
How to streamline loading of agarose gels using the VOYAGER pipette
Gel electrophoresis is a standard laboratory procedure that is indispensable for nucleic acid visualization and purification. INTEGRA explains that with the VOYAGER pipette, gel loading is much faster than with a traditional single-channel pipette because multiple samples can be transferred simultaneously. Download INTEGRA's application note below to find out how you can increase your gel-loading speed with the VOYAGER pipette.
How To Easily Maintain Your Pipette
Liquid handling specialists, INTEGRA have produced a poster that provides informative guidelines to enable any lab that has access to a microbalance, to perform a quick routine check that offers many of the benefits of an annual pipette calibration. The described protocol checks pipette functionality and provides a solid indication of its actual performance. It is not a substitute for an annual calibration performed by a specialized calibration laboratory but does allow you to assure your pipetting quality throughout the year.
Accelerate Liquid Transfers Between Different Labware Formats
This application note demonstrates the benefits of the electronic adjustable tip spacing VOYAGER II pipette range from INTEGRA Biosciences, when transferring liquid samples between different labware formats. Due to varying requirements in their sample processing, different labware vessels are typically used for sample storage, processing and analysis tasks. The VOYAGER II pipette offers a solution to this problem by adjusting its tip spacing anywhere between 4.5 mm and 33 mm.
