San Diego, CA (February 25, 2009) – Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, has announced today the addition of its new 384-well pipette tips for the Velocity11 VPrep® and Bravo™ liquid handling workstations. All pipette tips are certified RNA, DNA, RNase, DNase, Pyrogen, and ATP free by an independent laboratory and are offered in sterile and non sterile formats. Further benefits are provided from low percent Coefficient of Variation specifications to ensure precise liquid handling performance every time. In addition, antistatic trays reduce static charge so tips mount straight and eject with consistent precision. Tips are lot-tested on a Velocity11 workstation and must pass an extensive 15-point quality control program.
