New self-refilling microdispensor pipettes feature user-friendly ergonomics and ultra-soft plunger activation, which reduce hand fatigue. Posted on 19 Apr 2006
The three-valve system has ranges of 5-50 µl, 20-200 µl, and 100-1000 µl and are suitable for continuous microdispensing of a wide variety of reagents. The large digital display window makes the volume visible at all times, and the fluid path is made of durable, inert materials that provide optimal resistance to aggressive materials.
This Acura 865 line of manual micropipettes, developed by Socorex ISBA S.A. (Lausanne, Switzerland), can be autoclaved fully assembled at 121°C. The micropipettes do not need to be recalibrated. However, a swift-set user calibration system--with an integrated key and locking mechanism--enables easy in-lab calibrations.
Accessories include various feed-source possibilities such as silicone tubing, a reservoir, vials, and syringes. An optional four- or eight-channel dispenser increases pipetting efficiency when working with microplates. Each instrument has its own serial number, passes a stringent quality control procedure, and has a three-year warranty.
Socorex manufactures a wide variety of high precision instruments for measuring, dosing, transferring, dispensing, and injecting liquids in a large number of applications. Manual and electronic micropipettes, multichannel pipettors, repeater pipettes, dispensers, pipette controllers, and re-usable syringes, together with their accessories, constitute the major part of the company's products.
