Product Description
The Axygen® MRF-100-R-S is a 100 µL filtered sterile pipette tip — standard length, racked in hinged racks of 96 tips, 960 tips per pack, 4,800 tips per case (5 packs of 5 racks). Designed for the Axygen® MultiRack pipette tip system. Axygen® MultiRack Filter Tips employ an inert, hydrophobic barrier to prevent contamination from pipettors. The filter materials, containing no leachable additive with less than 20-micron pore sizes, effectively block aerosols without the risk of contaminating the precious sample with additives. Sterile. Not autoclavable. Yellow deck for easy visual identification. Volume range 1–100 µL. Catalog # MRF-100-R-S.
MRF-100-R-S — Decoding the Catalog Number

| S | Sterile |
MRF-100-R-S vs. MRF-10XT-L-R-S — 100 µL Standard vs. 10 µL Extended MaxRecovery+: Both are Axygen® MultiRack filtered sterile racked tips — volume, length, and surface technology are the key differences:
| MRF-100-R-S | MRF-10XT-L-R-S | |
|---|---|---|
| Volume | 100 µL (1–100 µL range) | 10 µL (0.1–10 µL range) |
| Length | Standard | Extended |
| Surface | Standard polypropylene | MaxRecovery+™ low retention |
| Deck Color | Yellow | Red |
| Best For | Standard 100 µL liquid handling, PCR, general lab | Low-concentration DNA/RNA, viscous liquids, deep vessels |
MRF-100-R-S vs. MR-100-R-S — Filtered vs. Unfiltered:
| MRF-100-R-S | MR-100-R-S | |
|---|---|---|
| Filter | ✅ Yes — aerosol barrier | ❌ No filter |
| Volume | 100 µL | 100 µL |
| Sterile | Yes | Yes |
| Best For | PCR, qPCR, RNA work, sensitive molecular biology | General liquid handling — aerosol protection not required |
Aerosol Barrier Filter — Cross-Contamination Protection at 100 µL Scale The inert, hydrophobic filter barrier of the MRF-100-R-S prevents aerosols and liquid carry-over from entering the pipettor barrel during aspiration — protecting both the sample and the pipettor from cross-contamination. With less than 20-micron pore sizes and no leachable additives, the filter provides reliable aerosol protection without introducing filter-derived contaminants into sensitive 100 µL samples. For PCR master mix preparation, qPCR reaction setup, RNA quantification and handling, and any 100 µL molecular biology workflow where sample-to-sample cross-contamination would compromise results, the MRF-100-R-S filtered format is the correct choice over the unfiltered MR-100-R-S.
100 µL — The Standard Molecular Biology Working Volume The 100 µL maximum capacity of the MRF-100-R-S covers the most common working volume in molecular biology — matching the standard reaction volume for PCR, the standard well volume for 96-well ELISA plates, the standard elution volume for many DNA and RNA purification kits, and a wide range of immunoassay, cell biology, and biochemistry protocols. The 1–100 µL working range of the MRF-100-R-S covers essentially all applications at this scale — from single-microliter additions to full 100 µL transfers — in a single filtered sterile tip format.
Standard Length — Universal Vessel Compatibility at 100 µL The standard length of the MRF-100-R-S provides optimal reach and ergonomics for the most common 100 µL laboratory vessels — 0.2 mL PCR tubes and strip tubes, 96-well PCR plates, 1.5 mL and 2.0 mL microcentrifuge tubes, standard reagent reservoirs, and 96-well microplates — making the standard length the correct choice for the vast majority of 100 µL liquid handling workflows.
Hinged Rack Packaging — 96 Tips per Rack, 5 Racks per Pack Supplied in hinged racks of 96 tips — the standard rack format for the Axygen® MultiRack system. 960 tips per pack (5 racks of 96), 5 packs per case — 4,800 tips per case total. The yellow deck color provides easy visual identification of the 100 µL filter tip format within mixed-volume tip rack inventories — the universally recognized color coding for 100 µL tips.
Axygen® MultiRack System — Compatible with All Major Pipette Brands Designed for the Axygen® MultiRack pipette tip system, compatible with all standard single-channel and multichannel pipettes in the 1–100 µL working range from Eppendorf, Rainin, Thermo Fisher, Hamilton, Gilson, and other major pipette manufacturers.
