epTIPS from Eppendorf

epTIPS - With the new generation of highly-accurate pipette tips, Eppendorf is taking the new standards of contemporary laboratory practice into account. All over the world, scientists and laboratory staff are using ever more accurate dispensing devices to try and satisfy the stringent requirements of reliability, reproducibility and the trend towards smaller sample volumes.

A pipette is only as good as its tip

Only when using perfectly manufactured pipette tips can the precision of modern pipettes be fully exploited. With the new generation of Eppendorf pipette tips, you can make even better use of this potential. The new epTIPS - Totally Integrated Pipetting System - have been perfectly matched to Eppendorf pipettes. This results in consistently reduced tip attachment and ejection forces, while ensuring complete sealing. This concept guarantees that Eppendorf pipettes are consistently developed and manufactured to address both physiological and ergonomic concerns, from the button to the pipette tip. Additionally, the new Eppendorf epTIPS can still be used with pipettes from other manufacturers.

State of the art production techniques

We have looked at, optimized or completely redesigned every detail of our well-known tip system. The material and its properties, fit, design and the forces required for operation, with the strictest quality standards being given top priority. A modular system consisting of a variety of purity levels and different types of packaging, such as bagged products, boxes, refill trays and single wrapped tips, provides more flexibility than ever.

An overall concept was developed to combine every conceivable application and volume with perfect functionality. epTIPS: as reliable as ever, and more progressive than ever before.

Application NoteGeneral Lab

The Tip of the Iceberg: How Pipette Tips Influence Results

This application note demonstrates the influence of pipette tip quality in the production of accurate pipetting results. The standard ISO 8655:2002 recommends using pipettes and tips from the same supplier, but as pipette tips are only consumables, they are not usually selected with quality in mind. As a result, consumables can have a direct impact on the quality of results. Problems with analysis results are usually linked to reagents, method and pipette but not to the pipette's consumable for example. Eppendorf standard tips have been shown to perform within permissible error tolerances regardless of the calibration method or autoclaving. Here, the user is free to choose the method most suitable for his application.



How Tips, Tubes and Plates can Affect Your Assays

In food and beverage laboratories, consumables made from plastic are used in practically every application. In 2008 a report in Science by Dr. Andrew Holt and his group from the University of Alberta, Canada, described that chemicals used as manufacturing additives can substantially inhibit enzymatic assays and binding studies by leaching into the sample. In this video Dr. Holt discusses how assays can be affected and how he ensures unaffected and reproducible results.
