INTEGRA Biosciences AG has announced the availability of new datasheets, available in English, French and German, describing their PIPETBOY comfort range of precision pipettes. The new literature may be downloaded as pdf files from www.integra-biosciences.com/flyer_e.html

Weighing only 190 grams the PIPETBOY comfort is designed to combine leading-edge user comfort with fast, precise liquid dispensing. Ergonomically contoured to fit perfectly into even small hands the new product offers high-throughput laboratories a product they can use all day and remain fatigue-free. Designed for comfortable single handed pipetting in the 1-100 millilitre volume range the PIPETBOY comfort ensures precise and safe operation for applications ranging from rapid pipetting to sensitive precision dosing.

Coming with a combined all-in-one stand and charging station that can be wall mounted or sit on the laboratory bench the PIPETBOY comfort is always ready to hand, always on standby.

Unlike other lower cost pipetting devices the PIPETBOY comfort has in-built features to prevent accidental misuse. Incorporating a sterile PTFE-membrane filter the PIPETBOY comfort prevents contamination from overfilling as the penetration of liquid is prevented. In addition the PIPETBOY comfort will not squirt out under pressure even if a filled pipette is unintentionally aspirated. Available in a choice of 5 colours (Classic Green, Royal Blue, Volcano Red, Sahara Yellow and Pacific Blue) the PIPETBOY Comfort provides a simple, yet highly effective means of visually differentiating pipettes by person, laboratory or even the project they are used in. The distinct visual appearance of each of the new PIPETBOY Comfort Colour range offers a simple way of minimising the chances of using the wrong pipette and cross contaminating your sample.

Incorporating a silicone pipette mount the PIPETBOY comfort guarantees a sure grip with all commercially available glass and plastic pipettes from 1ml to 100 ml. For sensitive samples all parts of the PIPETBOY comfort that come into contact with liquid can be autoclaved clean at 121° C for 30 minutes.
