Vertex™ Pipette Tips – Unparalleled Liquid Handling Performance

Sep 09 2014

Scientific Specialties, Inc (SSI), an American manufacturer of consumable plastics for laboratory researchers for 25 years, has launched a new, comprehensive family of pipette tips designed to provide researchers with the highest level of liquid handling performance.

Vertex™ Pipette Tips were developed following extensive research to provide users with the highest degree of fluid confidence and control while pipetting. SSI internal studies have indicated their tips provide less fluid retention and less sample loss. All Vertex™ tips are manufactured using SSI’s specially formulated NoStick™ resin. Through use of this resin, the inner surface of the tip is considerably more hydrophobic than standard industry tips enabling viscous fluids in particular to be dispensed more completely. The finely tapered tip construction and thinner walls eliminate the need for users to touch off their pipettor. Researchers maintain more pipetting control in general, but especially when working with smaller volumes.

The new range of tips includes bulk, racked, sterile, and EcoPac® (refill insert) options. They are producing Un-Filtered and Filtered varieties in 10µl, 10µl XL, 200µl, 300µl, 1mL and 1250µl sizes.

The Vertex™ line also includes a time-saving EcoPac® Refill System. The new system does not require any tools or special instructions to enable users to move from an empty insert to a fresh set of 96 tips. The Vertex™ racks were uniquely designed for one-hand operation. A simple press on the front of the lid releases it from the rack; otherwise the lid sits securely closed. The EcoPac® refills provide over a 70% savings in total materials (including products and packaging).

Vertex™ Pipette Tips are produced at our California home office under rigorous controls and safeguards. Our ISO 9001 certified Quality Assurance process and state of the art fully automated tip manufacturing, filtering, and inspecting is incomparable in our industry. All tip products are constructed of virgin, medical grade polypropylene and are certified free of RNase, DNase, DNA, and PCR inhibitors.
