Stop Pipetting Problems Ruining Your Experiments

According to scientists, the main pipetting errors with air displacement pipettes, when they aren’t human, are due to problem liquids. To help scientists counter those problems, Gilson announces the official worldwide launch of its new positive displacement pipette: MICROMAN® E.

The solution for problem liquids pipetting

MICROMAN E positive displacement pipette with its Capillary Pistons helps scientists counter common pipetting problems that may affect accuracy and precision when working with problem liquids. Problems they may have faced include: microlitres of viscous liquids sticking to the tip of the pipette, volatile liquids creating leakage in the tip or even under-delivered hot liquids.

MICROMAN E with its positive displacement principle solves these common problems and also avoid contamination by isolating the aspirated sample from the inside part of the pipette, eliminating the air space between the piston and sample, to offer the highest precision.

No risk of contamination

MICROMAN E and CPs are the strongest barrier against residual sample carry-over, aerosol contamination, and cross-contamination when pipetting liquids such as DNA fragments, PCR templates, enzyme solutions and buffers. With MICROMAN E, you protect your pipette, your sample and yourself.

Advanced ergonomic design

MICROMAN E ensures accuracy and precision with the highest ease-of-use and control through an ergonomic design with large action button, comfortable finger rest and visible volumeter on front of the body, a patented QuickSnap unique CP fitting system that makes it the only positive displacement pipette as intuitive and simple to use as regular pipettes and tips, and a volume control button to secure the manipulation from accidental volume changes.

MICROMAN E recently received the Red Dot Product Design Award 2015 for its unique design language in the Life Science and Medicine category. Evaluation criteria include degree of innovation, ergonomics, functionality, durability, and quality.
