Anachem has launched the 4titude Ergo plate stand, which is designed to hold microplates and skirted PCR plates in a comfortable position during pipetting sequences.
The Ergo plate stand features fully adjustable height and angle and can be set to the user's personally preferred position, whether seated or standing.
This helps to prevent repetitive strain injuries (RSI) by reducing stress and strain on the upper body, making pipetting easier and safer.
The Ergo plate stand has eight spaces for 1.5ml or 2.0ml microcentrifuge tubes, which is suitable for pipetting master mixes into PCR plates.
Anachem said the plate stand is easy to adjust while remaining sturdy and robust for regular day-to-day use.
It is available in four colours (red, green, blue and yellow) for colour coding or identification of work.
Anachem has announced an introductory offer where customers can save GBP44 if they buy a 4titude Ergo plate stand before 31 March 2011.
