Applications:
- Pipetting long, sticky molecules such as DNA, proteins, and peptides, which tend to bind to the walls of pipette tips.
- Critical, small volume protocols that require a high degree of accuracy. At these ultra-micro volumes, tiny amounts of bound sample represent a large percentage of the total sample volume.
- Quantitative assays in which sample binding can significantly alter results.
- Replace siliconized tips. Silicone will leach into your sample and can degrade DNA. It is also less effective after autoclaving.
- Pipetting expensive reagents such as enzymes. Minimize the amount of liquid discarded with the tip.
