AccuTip

AccuTip is a brand of disposable pipette tips manufactured by a company specializing in laboratory consumables. These tips are designed to be used with standard micropipettes, common laboratory instruments for accurately dispensing small volumes of liquid. AccuTip products are typically made from polypropylene, a material chosen for its chemical resistance and low fluid retention. They are commonly used in various scientific fields, including molecular biology, genetics, chemistry, and clinical diagnostics, for tasks such as sample preparation, reagent addition, and purification.

The AccuTip line often includes a variety of tip types to suit different applications. These can range from standard, filtered, and sterile tips to low-retention versions designed to minimize sample loss, particularly with viscous liquids. Filtered tips incorporate a hydrophobic filter to prevent aerosol contamination of the pipette itself and cross-contamination between samples. Sterile tips are gamma-irradiated to ensure they are free from microorganisms, which is crucial for applications like cell culture or PCR. The manufacturing process for AccuTip products generally emphasizes precision and consistency to ensure reliable pipetting volumes. The brand aims to provide laboratory professionals with dependable and cost-effective solutions for their liquid handling needs.
