Serological pipets are practically ubiquitous in research labs. Do you use serological pipets every day? If so, do you find yourself thinking “drip happens” more often than you’d like? Does the worry of dripping affect your work? Well, you can alleviate worry when pipetting with Wobble-not™ serological pipets. Wobble-nots lessen worry of: Strain in your wrist from constant jamming Drops that will affect accuracy of the dispensed volume Arm fatigue when having to move slowly for fear of dripping with a wobbly pipet Contamination of samples and/or work surfaces by…
Relief for tedious repeat pipetting using serological pipets
The ali-Q™ 2 aliquoting pipet controller features never-before-seen dual pipetting technology. Repeat pipette using serological pipets and this 2-in-1 pipetter. When you have to dispense the same volume over and over again, a repeat pipetter used with your serological pipets can help decrease the time you have to spend in the hood. The ali-Q 2 is a unique repeat pipetter with innovative aliquoting technology using sensors and proprietary software that provides semi-automatic accurate multidispenses. Because of this computer controlled feature, you don’t have to watch the graduations on the serological pipet….
Support Breast Cancer Research when you purchase MLA D-Tipper Pinks
How does VistaLab support breast cancer research? VistaLab proudly donates $5 to breast cancer research for every Special Edition D-Tipper Pinks purchased. During the month of October, in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, VistaLab doubles its donation to $10 per Pinks pipette purchased. Who does my purchase benefit? This year VistaLab will donate to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC). What can I do to support breast cancer research? Join us in this effort to help women in need: Make a donation to organizations doing research. Memorial Sloan Kettering…
Balancing tubes for ultracentrifugation a tedious task? ali-Q 2 can help with the struggle
Scenario: You need to balance your sample tubes for ultracentrifugation. Application: Preparative ultracentrifugation is a high-velocity centrifuge used in the separation of small submicroscopic particles. This process requires an ultracentrifuge machine to rotate rapidly, at extreme high speeds, to generate enough centrifugal force to separate the solution. This force will magnify any slight weight differences within the spinning samples. The struggle: It’s critical to properly balance your sample loads to avoid uneven distribution of weight that can cause rotor damage, uncontrolled heavy vibration, or other imbalance errors. Typically, samples are…
Identifying pipette design factors to reduce ergonomic risk
In 2001, a project to identify the underlying factors contributing to the development of ergonomic injuries to pipetters and to reduce the factors attributed to the design of the pipette was undertaken by VistaLab Technologies. The project involved: On-site investigation of pipetting operations at hospitals, clinics, and R&D facilities A review of published studies of pipetters An examination of injury statistics among pipetters An examination of the design of pipettes and the pipetting workstations DOWNLOAD KEY FINDINGS An evaluation of the ergonomic pipette design at the time revealed that each of…
