Product Description
The Axygen® MRF-10XT-L-R-S is a 10 µL extended length filtered pipette tip with MaxRecovery+™ low-retention hydrophobic surface — sterile, 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. MaxRecovery+™ technology creates a hydrophobic surface to improve accuracy and precision while reducing surface tension and sample wastage — produced without intentionally added PFAS. Specially designed for lab applications that demand complete release of a liquid solution, such as low concentration DNA, selected proteins, and viscous liquids. Suggested replacement for GEN3-10-L-R-S. Catalog # MRF-10XT-L-R-S.
MRF-10XT-L-R-S — Decoding the Catalog Number Every element of the catalog number describes a key specification:
| Code | Meaning |
|---|---|
| MRF | MultiRack Filter tip |
| 10 | 10 µL maximum volume |
| XT | Extended length |
| L | Low retention (MaxRecovery+™) |
| R | Racked |
| S | Sterile |
MaxRecovery+™ — The Next Generation of Low-Retention Surface Technology MaxRecovery+™ technology creates a hydrophobic surface to improve accuracy and precision while reducing surface tension and sample wastage, all while being produced without intentionally added PFAS. MaxRecovery+™ has been internally developed by Corning and features intellectual property protection and solvent compatibility. The hydrophobic surface treatment reduces the adhesion of liquid to the inner tip wall — ensuring that the full aspirated volume is dispensed rather than being retained as residual volume on the tip surface. For applications involving low-concentration DNA, selected proteins, and viscous liquids where every microliter of sample matters, MaxRecovery+™ delivers superior recovery compared to standard polypropylene tips. When considering low retention pipette tips, MaxRecovery+™ — because every drop counts.
MRF-10XT-L-R-S vs. MR-10XT-L-R-S — Filtered vs. Unfiltered: The Key Distinction
| MRF-10XT-L-R-S | MR-10XT-L-R-S | |
|---|---|---|
| Filter | ✅ Yes — aerosol barrier filter | ❌ No filter |
| Volume | 10 µL | 10 µL |
| Length | Extended | Extended |
| Surface | MaxRecovery+™ | MaxRecovery+™ |
| Sterile | Yes | Yes |
| Best For | PCR, qPCR, genomics, RNA work — aerosol protection required | General liquid handling — aerosol protection not required |
The MRF-10XT-L-R-S filtered format is the correct choice for any 10 µL application requiring aerosol barrier protection — including PCR setup, qPCR, RNA quantification, and any sensitive molecular biology workflow where cross-contamination between samples via aerosol carry-over would compromise results.
10 µL Extended Length — Designed for Deep Vessels and Confined Spaces The extended length format of the MRF-10XT-L-R-S provides additional tip length beyond the standard 10 µL tip — enabling reach into deep microcentrifuge tubes, 96-well PCR plates with tall skirts, and other vessels where a standard-length 10 µL tip cannot access the full working volume at the bottom of the vessel. For PCR setup workflows where tips must reach into 0.2 mL PCR strip tubes, 96-well PCR plates, and 1.5 mL microcentrifuge tubes at the 0.1–10 µL volume range, the extended length format ensures complete, consistent aspiration from every vessel.
Inert Hydrophobic Filter — Aerosol Protection Without Flow Restriction The filter in the MRF-10XT-L-R-S uses inert, hydrophobic barrier material with less than 20 micron pore sizes — effectively blocking aerosols and reducing the risk of contaminating the sample or the pipette with carry-over material. The hydrophobic filter material does not retain aqueous liquids, ensuring that filter blocking and flow restriction are avoided during normal pipetting operations at the 0.1–10 µL volume range.
Hinged Rack Packaging — 96 Tips per Rack, 5 Racks per Pack The MRF-10XT-L-R-S is supplied in hinged racks of 96 tips — the standard rack format for the Axygen® MultiRack system. The hinged lid allows easy one-handed rack opening during active pipetting, and the rack can be reclosed between uses to protect unused tips from contamination. 960 tips per pack (5 racks of 96), 5 packs per case — 4,800 tips per case total. Deck color: Red — for easy visual identification of the 10 µL filter tip format among mixed tip rack inventories.
Axygen® MultiRack System Compatible The MRF-10XT-L-R-S is designed for the Axygen® MultiRack pipette tip system — compatible with all standard single-channel and multichannel pipettes in the 0.1–10 µL working range. Tips fit all major pipette brands including Eppendorf, Rainin, Thermo Fisher, Hamilton, Gilson, and others.
