Biotechnology company Biohit has developed an electronic pipette that is said to be particularly suitable for dispensing small volumes of liquid.
Thanks to the patented technology of the pipette, the liquid is dispensed from the pipette tip very rapidly, which ensures that the tip is completely emptied.
As a result, there will not be the usual drop of liquid left at the tip and there will be no need to touch the receiving vessel wall during pipetting.
As a result, the handling of the liquid is contamination free, more precise and faster than with other pipettes.
Biohit will launch the pipette under the commercial name Eline 0.1 - 5ul and it will be available globally from 27 June 2011.
The pipette is suitable for handling 0.1 to 5.0 micro litres of liquid and is targeted at molecular biology laboratories.
The new pipette complements Biohit's range of single-channel pipettes.
