Thermo Fisher Scientific Introduces New Lightweight Option for Fast, Productive Pipetting
Thermo Scientific Matrix Hybrid 8 and 12 Channel Pipettes Provide an Ergonomic Solution Between Manual and Electronic Pipettes
MILFORD, MA., (2 June, 2008) - Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, has introduced the new Thermo Scientific Matrix Hybrid Multichannel pipette, combining, the lightweight feel and control of a manual pipette with the automatic volume adjustment of an electronic pipette for faster more productive pipetting. Ergonomically designed for one-hand pipetting, the Matrix Hybrid Multichannel pipette eliminates strenuous micrometer knob twisting with incremental scrolling, six programmable 'QUIK-sets' and a voice recognition system. The 8- and 12-channel pipettes support volume ranges of 0.5 µl to 12.5 µl, 2 µl to 30 µl, and 20 µl to 300 µl. Suitable for use across industry, academia and healthcare, the lightweight design and smooth, light plunger operation make every pipetting process easy and safe to perform without undue strain on the wrist or thumb.
Made exclusively for use with the Matrix Hybrid pipettes, Thermo Scientific Matrix ClipTips further enhance the product's ergonomic design by minimizing tip application and ejection forces, decreasing the risk of Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI). This innovative design ensures that the tips will securely lock onto the pipette with minimal application and ejection force, eliminating problems associated with loose, leaking or uneven tips.
Precise control of the pipetting actuation is maintained through manual plunger control, allowing all operations to be carried out with one hand, leaving the other hand free for other tasks. The option of simple one or two-point calibration can be performed easily in-lab allowing better precision and accuracy over the range of the pipette.
The Thermo Scientific Matrix Hybrid Multichannel pipette, available in 8 and 12 channels, elevates manual pipetting to the next level and is an ideal solution to increase productivity, comfort and control.
