Pipette Tips

Pipette tips are the most frequently replaced consumable in any liquid handling workflow, and their quality has a direct and measurable impact on volumetric accuracy, sample recovery, and contamination control. Tips that fit loosely on a pipette barrel introduce air leaks that cause systematic volume errors across an entire assay plate. Low-retention tip coatings are essential for viscous samples, protein-rich matrices, and precious extracts where residual sample clinging to the tip wall represents both a measurement error and an analyte loss. Filtered tips provide an aerosol barrier that protects the pipette barrel from contamination in PCR, molecular biology, and clinical applications where cross-contamination between samples is a critical concern. For high-throughput laboratories, tip consistency across production lots is a method validation requirement, not a preference.

Ibis Scientific supplies pipette tips from Biotix™ and BrandTech Scientific™ covering standard, filtered, low-retention, and extended-length formats in volumes from 0.1 µL through 1250 µL, compatible with all major single and multichannel pipette platforms. Racked, reload, and bulk pack options are available across the full tip range. Contact us for cross-reference assistance or volume pricing on pipette tip programs.
