This manual pipette requires periodic calibration per ISO 8655-2 to maintain specified systematic and random error tolerances. Only the lower half of the pipette is autoclavable; the upper assembly must not be subjected to steam sterilization.
- Calibration Requirement: The pipette must be calibrated at test volumes 50, 25, and 5 µL according to ISO 8655-2 to ensure accuracy within stated systematic error limits.
- Sterilization Limitation: Only the lower half of the pipette can be autoclaved; the upper handle and adjustment mechanism must be cleaned using non-immersion methods.
- Tip Compatibility: The pipette requires compatible 8-channel tips designed for the 5-50 µL range to achieve proper seal and accurate volume delivery.
How does the 0.5 µL increment affect pipetting accuracy at the lower end of the 5-50 µL range?
The 0.5 µL increment allows fine volume selection, but accuracy and precision are not uniform across the range. The product description lists systematic and random error values by test volume (50, 25, and 5 µL) in the technical table, meaning performance degrades at lower volumes. Users should inspect those error values for the specific test volumes of interest to evaluate trade-offs.
What type of pipette tips are compatible with the TopPette 8-channel pipette for 5-50 µL?
The product description does not specify exact tip models or brands, but directs users to confirm compatible tips before ordering. For an 8-channel pipette operating in the 5-50 µL range, standard 200 µL multichannel tips or dedicated low-retention tips are typically used. Contact Atomfair technical sales for validated tip recommendations to ensure proper fit and seal.
Is the entire TopPette pipette autoclavable, and what sterilization conditions are recommended?
Only the lower half of the pipette is autoclavable where indicated; the upper half cannot be autoclaved. The product description states 'Lower half autoclavable' and advises confirming sterilization needs before ordering. For specific autoclave cycles and calibration checks post-sterilization, consult the technical support team. The pipette also carries an ISO 8655-2 calibration reference for revalidation.
The TopPette 8-channel 5-50 µL pipette offers parallel liquid handling for microplate and PCR workflows with partial autoclavability, but requires user confirmation of tip compatibility and sterilization coverage for the upper assembly.
Positive
- 8-channel parallel liquid handling: The 8-channel configuration enables simultaneous pipetting for microplate loading, PCR plate preparation, and ELISA workflows, increasing throughput in repetitive transfer tasks.
- Partial autoclavability for sterility: The lower half of the pipette is autoclavable, allowing decontamination of the sample-contact parts while protecting the upper assembly from heat damage.
Trade-offs
- Limited sterilization scope: Only the lower half is autoclavable; the upper half cannot be sterilized by autoclave, requiring alternative disinfection methods for complete asepsis.
- Tip compatibility not predefined: The product description does not specify compatible tip brands or models, necessitating user verification to ensure proper fit and seal.
