Manufactured using advanced materials and production processes, the Eppendorf Research plus pipette weighs only 71-75g, compared with up to 125g for conventional pipettes.
The Research plus has been designed to provide ease of use in accordance with the Eppendorf Physiocare Concept.
As well as being lightweight, risk of RSI is reduced by low aspirating, dispensing, blow-out and tip ejection forces.
The spring-loaded tip cone, fast volume adjustment, plus optimised position and shape of the control buttons and four-digit display make for stress-free workflow.
The Research plus is based on Eppendorf's Perfectpiston system, made from Fortron.
This organic polymer is resistant to heat, acids and alkalis, mildew, bleaches, ageing, sunlight and abrasion.
It absorbs only small amounts of solvents and resists dyeing.
The result is a pipette that is safe, robust and fully autoclavable, with no need to recalibrate or re-grease afterwards.
The Eppendorf Research plus is available in a choice of single channel, multi-channel and fixed-volume options in different sizes.
It is also simple and quick to calibrate the pipette to handle a dense liquid, such as glycerin, and then recalibrate back to a normal setting.
Features such as the minimal parts design, quick connection clip and individual channel removal on multi-channels facilitate maintenance and reduce lifetime service costs.
