Description

MicroPette Plus Fully Autoclavable Adjustable Volume Mechanical Pipette

PRIMARY CLINICAL & DIAGNOSTIC USES

1. High-Precision Liquid Handling for Molecular Diagnostics
  • Primary Use: Provides a single-channel, fully autoclavable, adjustable volume mechanical pipette designed for accurate and reproducible liquid transfer in clinical diagnostic workflows such as PCR setup, ELISA, sample preparation, and reagent dispensing.
  • How it helps: For the clinical laboratory scientist and research technician, the MicroPette Plus ensures precise delivery of critical reagents and patient samples. The micrometer-operated piston displacement (calibrated to ISO8655) guarantees consistent volumes, directly reducing well-to-well variability in downstream assays. For the patient, this accuracy translates to reliable diagnostic results for conditions such as infectious diseases (HIV, hepatitis, COVID-19) and genetic screening, minimizing the need for repeat testing and supporting accurate clinical decisions.
2. Fully Autoclavable Design for Aseptic Applications
  • Primary Use: Constructed from high-quality, heat-resistant materials, the entire pipette can be fully autoclaved at 121°C, 1 atm for 20 minutes without disassembly, and is also UV-disinfectable and resistant to harsh chemicals.
  • How it helps: For the cell culture specialist and microbiology technician, the ability to sterilize the whole pipette without disassembly simplifies aseptic technique and eliminates cross-contamination risks between sensitive cell lines or microbial cultures. For the patient undergoing cell-based therapies or sterility testing, this rigorous sterilization protects specimens from contaminants, ensuring the integrity of diagnostic results and the safety of biological products.
3. Ergonomic Operation to Reduce User Fatigue
  • Primary Use: Features a light-touch plunger, relaxed finger rest, and overall ergonomic design to reduce hand strain during repetitive pipetting tasks.
  • How it helps: For the high-throughput laboratory staff, the low-force operation and comfortable grip help mitigate the risk of repetitive strain injury (RSI) during long pipetting sessions. The quick-release tip ejector allows for fast, one-handed tip changes, further improving workflow efficiency. For the patient, a less fatigued technician maintains consistent, error-free technique, which directly contributes to the reliability and reproducibility of their diagnostic test results.
4. Precision Volume Adjustment with Clear Digital Display
  • Primary Use: Equipped with a rotating counter knob and a clear digital display window, allowing for quick, unambiguous volume setting.
  • How it helps: For the quality control chemist and clinical laboratory scientist, the ergonomic volume adjustment mechanism enables precise setting and locking of the desired volume, preventing accidental changes during pipetting. The large digital display provides clear visual confirmation of the set volume, reducing the potential for operator error. For the patient, this precision ensures that every well receives the exact reagent volume intended, reducing the risk of false-negative or false-positive results due to volumetric discrepancies.
5. Versatile Volume Ranges for Broad Laboratory Applications
  • Primary Use: Available in a comprehensive range of adjustable volume models covering from 0.1 µL to 10 mL, including single-channel adjustable, fixed, and multi-channel (8- and 12-channel) configurations.
  • How it helps: For the laboratory manager, stocking a single MicroPette Plus platform simplifies inventory and ensures consistent pipetting technique across multiple assays, from micro-volume PCR setup (0.1-2.5 µL) to larger-volume reagent dispensing (1-10 mL). For the patient, this versatility allows the laboratory to use the same high-quality instrument across different diagnostic platforms, supporting consistent, high-quality results.
6. User Calibration and Maintenance for Sustained Accuracy
  • Primary Use: The pipette supports user calibration using standard laboratory tools and can be calibrated online via the manufacturer’s website, ensuring long-term accuracy without expensive service contracts.
  • How it helps: For the quality assurance manager and laboratory technician, the ability to perform in-house calibration reduces instrument downtime and associated costs. The individual calibration certificate supplied with each pipette supports regulatory compliance (GLP, ISO 8655). For the patient, regular, easy maintenance ensures that the pipette remains in top working condition, sustaining diagnostic accuracy over thousands of pipetting cycles.

SAFETY HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

  • Chemical Compatibility: Verify that the pipette materials are compatible with the reagents being used; the pipette is designed to resist a wide range of chemicals.
    Autoclaving Preparation: Pipette can be autoclaved without disassembly; after autoclaving, allow to cool and dry for at least 12 hours before use.
    Tip Fit: Ensure the pipette tip is securely attached before aspirating; a loose tip may cause inaccurate volume delivery or sample loss.
    Volume Lock: After setting the desired volume, ensure the digital display shows the correct setting.
    Aspiration Technique: Release the plunger smoothly and slowly to prevent foaming, splashing, or aspiration of air bubbles that can affect volume accuracy.
    Avoid Dropping: Dropping the pipette may damage the internal piston mechanism and affect calibration; recalibrate if dropped.
    Cleaning: Do not immerse the entire pipette in liquid; wipe exterior surfaces only.
    Training: Only trained laboratory personnel should operate the MicroPette Plus for clinical diagnostic applications.

2. FIRST AID MEASURES

  • Sample Splash: If a biological or chemical sample splashes into the eyes, flush immediately with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention; if on skin, wash with soap and water.
    Chemical Exposure: If the pipette is contaminated with hazardous chemicals, refer to the chemical's Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for specific first aid instructions.
    Mechanical Injury: If a pipette tip punctures skin (sharps injury), wash the wound thoroughly and follow the facility's exposure management protocol for bloodborne pathogens.
    Autoclave Burn: If handling the pipette immediately after autoclaving, use heat-resistant gloves; if a burn occurs, cool the area with cool running water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
    Inhalation: If chemical vapors are inhaled during reagent preparation, move to fresh air immediately; seek medical attention if symptoms persist.

3. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

  • Flammability: Plastic components and tip ejector are combustible; may melt or burn if exposed to flame or high heat.
    Extinguishing Media: Use carbon dioxide (CO₂) or a dry chemical extinguisher for fires involving plastic materials.
    Fire Response: The primary fire risk comes from flammable laboratory reagents being handled; follow the laboratory's fire safety protocols.
