The compatibility of pipettes with various pipette tips can significantly impact the accuracy and precision of the volumes dispensed. The performance of five adjustable Transferpette® S Single-Channel Pipettes with nominal volumes of 10 µL, 20 µL, 100 µL, 200 µL, and 1000 µL were evaluated using universal pipette tips from five different manufacturers. Explore the independent data collected that demonstrates the compatibility of the Transferpette S with high-quality universal tips, and find out if there are any notable differences between using BRAND® tips and the universal tips.
