Product news

The latest version of the Eppendorf Research® plus single-channel pipette weighs only 71 g (lightest version of fix volume pipette) – a real relief if you have to perform multiple dispensing operations in your daily routine.

Conventional pipettes weigh up to 125 g and thus subject the muscles to unnecessary strain. Apart from the low weight, the extremely low power needed to operate the new generation of Eppendorf pipettes makes them incredibly easy to use: only 1.2 - 1.5 N is needed to move the control button. Conventional pipettes require up to 6 N and are therefore significantly harder to operate. These two innovative enhancements so significantly improve the ergonomics of the Research® plus that it sets entirely new standards in manual pipetting.

No concessions must be made to precision and correctness. Once again, the Hamburg-based pipette manufacturers are delivering renowned Eppendorf quality.

The product was recently (March 2009) awarded the "red dot award for product design 2009".

The red dot award has been presented annually since 1955 and honors exceptional design achievements for industrial products worldwide. It is one of the most renowned designer competitions in the world.

Genome AnalysisGenomics, the study of genomes, includes functional genomics, evolutionary genomics and comparative genomics. There are many genomic technologies such as DNA sequencing of whole genomes, computational biology and bioinformatics. DNA and nucleic acids must be isolated and concentrated from cells for analysis with kits, automated analyzers and software. Other useful technologies for studying genomics include PCR, microarrays and electrophoresis.PCR and Thermal CyclingPolymerase chain reaction (PCR) kits and thermal cyclers are used for the in vitro amplification of DNA permitting subsequent analysis and experimental procedures. Explore a range of high-quality polymerase, primers and nucleotides or simplify your workflow with a PCR mastermix. Find reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and cDNA synthesis kits for RNA products and libraries. Quantitatively measure the amplification of DNA with real-time PCR (qPCR) and droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) kits and systems, and discover automated PCR setup solutions to increase throughput. Alternative DNA amplification methods also include recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) kits.
