Product Description
Load an 8- or 12-channel LiteTouch pipettor faster from a stable, high-density TipStation that holds 960 sterile 20 µL tips in one compact stack. The Sorenson BioScience 88040T is the low retention version of Sorenson catalog number 88040, available exclusively from LIGHT LABS.
These 20 µL tips are made from clear polypropylene and are designed for Rainin LiteTouch™ pipettors, sealing and ejecting with less force than universal tips. The TipStation format stacks five 192-tip decks into one compact 960-tip station. Each deck is laid out as 2 x 96 to match microtiter plates, works with 8- and 12-channel pipettors, and the lid can be positioned to expose just 96 tips. They are sterile and certified RNase/DNase-free, human DNA-free, PCR inhibitor-free and non-pyrogenic. This listing is sold by the full case: case of 4,800 (5 packs x 5 decks x 192 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)
- Graduation Lines – quick visual accuracy checks
- Fine Point Delivery – precise sample dispensing
- Sequence BioTech Compatible – also fits the Sequence BioTech 96-channel Benchtop Pipettor
- TipStation Double Stack – 2 x 96 decks, 192 tips each, five decks per stack; lid can expose just 96 tips
- Certified Clean – RNase/DNase-free, human DNA-free, PCR inhibitor-free and non-pyrogenic
