Product Description
Protect your LiteTouch pipettor and your 20 µL samples at the same time with a sterile barrier tip that also minimizes sample loss to the tip wall. The Sorenson BioScience 87940T is the low retention version of Sorenson catalog number 87940, available exclusively from LIGHT LABS.
These 20 µL tips are made from clear polypropylene with an inert polyethylene barrier filter and are designed for Rainin LiteTouch™ pipettors, sealing and ejecting with less force than universal tips. MultiRack packaging puts 96 tips in each rack, ready to use straight from the pack. They are sterile and certified RNase/DNase-free, human DNA-free, PCR inhibitor-free and non-pyrogenic. This listing is sold by the pack: pack of 960 (10 racks x 96 tips).
Key Features
- LTS Compatible – optimized for Rainin LiteTouch™ (LTS) pipettors; this is not a universal-fit tip
- Less Force to Seal and Eject – LTS geometry needs less insertion and ejection force than universal tips, reducing hand strain
- Low Retention Surface – the T version minimizes sample left on the tip wall for better recovery (LIGHT LABS exclusive)
- Inert Polyethylene Barrier – filter reduces the risk of cross-contamination from aerosols and liquids
- Graduation Lines – quick visual accuracy checks
- Fine Point Delivery – precise sample dispensing
- Sequence BioTech Compatible – also fits the Sequence BioTech 96-channel Benchtop Pipettor
- Certified Clean – RNase/DNase-free, human DNA-free, PCR inhibitor-free and non-pyrogenic
