Sterile pipette tip

filter

Product overview
Pipette tips with integrated filters feature a built-in hydrophobic filtration barrier positioned inside the tip. The filter prevents aerosols, liquid droplets and particulates from entering the pipette shaft, protecting the instrument and preserving sample integrity. Filter media are typically hydrophobic polymers such as polyethylene or polypropylene, permitting air passage while blocking liquids and contaminants.

Benefits

• Prevents contamination of the pipette shaft by aerosols or liquids.
• Preserves sample integrity and improves accuracy and reproducibility.
• Hydrophobic filter media reduce risk of liquid carryover into the pipettor.

Applications

• Handling hazardous, infectious or low-volume sensitive samples.
• Molecular biology workflows: PCR, qPCR and DNA/RNA amplification.
• Cell culture and aseptic laboratory procedures.

Filter selection
Select filter pore size and tip volume according to sample type, viscosity and required retention. Multiple tip sizes and filter options are available to suit different pipettors and workflows.
