The new tips pipette a volume of 50 µl with barrier and are certified to be Rnase/Dnase-free. They are offered presterile, presterile with barrier or nonsterile.

"These new tips are the second offering in our new line of liquid handling consumables," explained Robert Lund, Systems Business Manager for Beckman Coulter."The high quality of these disposable tips is ensured by our comprehensive validation and certification processes at a systems level."P50 tips are configured with Biomek software and are compatible with a range of deep well plates and tubes.
