Focus on the science instead of the pain Let’s face it, pipetting takes stamina and precision. If your body is uncomfortable or worse yet, in pain, both are compromised and your accuracy will suffer, not to mention your health. To be ergonomically correct, real differences in traditional pipetting postures are crucial – like minimizing awkward wrist positions, keeping a low arm and elbow height, and relaxing the shoulders and upper arms. This is virtually impossible when using pipettes with elongated, completely vertical axial designs. Simply decreasing button pressure or changing…
4 reasons why pipetting with Wobble-not serological pipets means less worry
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…

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…
