Liquid handling

Making the essential exceptional!

Our liquid handling portfolio provides you with accurate and repeatable nanolitre to microlitre

pipetting, every time, irrespective of liquid viscosity or environmental conditions. Each of these

innovative disposable micropipette tips has its own individual piston, not an air gap or system

liquid, offering true positive displacement pipetting with no risk of clogging, corrosion

or cross-contamination.
