VIAFLO Electronic Pipettes

INTEGRA Biosciences

Electronic pipettes with touch wheel user interface.   VIAFLO pipettes accommodate any pipetting task at hand: from single transfers to complex protocols. An intuitive touch wheel interface and color display allows for the quickest volume changes and user friendly menu navigation. The ergonomic design enables effortless pipetting. The unique tip fitting of the VIAFLO pipette assures that GripTip pipette tips will never loosen, leak or fall off. VIAFLO Electronic Pipettes Features:   GripTip Pipette Tips - By designing our GripTips™ in tandem with VIAFLO pipettes, we have created a unique, integrated system that offers the securest pipette and pipette tip connection. High lateral resistance. This prevents tips from falling off when touching off a multichannel pipette within a 96 or 384 well plate. Low required tip attachment forces. Low required tip ejection forces. All tips seal at the same height ensuring a perfect touch off and increased precision when dispensing. Intuitive User Interface - A full color screen and a proven touch wheel interface offer quick and comprehensible menu navigation. Simply by moving a finger over the touch wheel, menus and settings can be accessed. All menus are spelled out on the clear to read screen making memorizing of abbreviations unnecessary. Convenient Pipette and Program Management - VIAFLO pipettes can be connected to a computer via USB port. With the free to use pipette management software VIALINK, custom programs can be created on the computer and then be transferred onto VIAFLO pipettes. For laboratories with many users or power users with many pipetting protocols, all custom programs can be stored and backed up in a library on the computer. Applications: Repeat Dispense Manual Pipetting Sample Dilution Reverse Pipetting Variable Dispense

VOYAGER 12-Channel Adjustable Tip Spacing Pipettes

INTEGRA Biosciences

Looking for a cost effective alternative to expensive automated sample handling? The VOYAGER adjustable spacing pipettes provide efficient multichannel sample transfers using 4, 6, 8 or 12 samples at a time for fractions of the cost of automated sample handlers. By allowing a user to change the pipettes tip spacing on the fly, the 12-channel VOYAGER enables scientists to transfer up to 12 samples at a time between labware of different sizes and configurations.  The simple push of a button on the patented Touch Wheel interface opens or closes the tips to a spacing defined by the user. The result is a level of flexibility currently delivered by single channel pipettes but with a vast improvement in efficiency and productivity. VOYAGER is the first and only handheld pipette that allows the transfer of samples between two different labware formats with one-handed operation. VOYAGER 12-Channel Adjustable Tip Spacing Pipette Features & Benefits:   Multichannel Adjustable Tip Spacing - Expand anywhere from 4.5 mm to 9 mm to accommodate a wide variety of micro plates, tube racks and gel boxes. Motorized Tip Movements - Offers high resolution tip spacing movements for optimal targeting; eliminates transcription errors when performing sample transfers. The motorized tip movement also allows for one hand operation. GripTip Pipette Tips - Tips that don’t fall off help eliminate precious reagent or sample waste. Tips that seal effortlessly to optimize accuracy and precision every time. Intuitive User Interface - Electronic pipettes have a common user interface making it easy enough to switch between both systems without a second thought. Convenient Pipette and Program Management - Pipettes can be connected to a computer via USB port. For laboratories with many users or power users with many pipetting protocols, all custom programs can be stored and backed up in a library on the computer.   Some VOYAGER Applications include: Sample reformatting (96 to 384 or test tubes to microwell plates) PCR Reaction Setup ELISA sample transfers Taqman Assay Setup Available Models: 4-channel 6-channel 8-channel
