Multi-Channel Pipettes

What is the Best Use for a Multi-Channel Pipette?

A multichannel pipette is a fundamental and important piece of equipment needed by laboratories that must handle liquid quantities within multiple unique samples at the same time in an exacting and efficient manner. BostonMed Supply’s multichannel pipettes (including the 12 channels and 8 channel versions) are the optimum hand-held multichannel pipettes for laboratories conducting high-throughput studies such as ELISA assays, PCR set-up, and microplate filling for genomics, proteomics, drug screening, and other applications. This type of pipette enables users to pipette into more than one well at the same time which significantly reduces both the time and effort related to pipetting into wells repeatedly while ensuring that the volumes delivered in each well remains consistent with each other, possibly critical in univariate experiments.

Multichannel pipettes have a more pronounced value in laboratory disciplines where replication, uniformity, and speed are important, such as in pharmaceutical development, or clinical diagnostics testing. The 8 channel multichannel pipettes, for example, is ideal for reliable handling of 96-well plate setups, but the versatile 12 channel pipette can handle larger formats, or simply multiple pipette rows across the plate. A multichannel pipettes assist researchers to work more productively and with less pipetting errors, and avoid user fatigue, uniquely beneficial for managing larger sample volumes in studies. Scientists prefer BostonMed Supply’s proven designs for multi-channel pipettes to meet their laboratory needs for precision and efficiency of use.
