Do not let pipette performance affect research work

For laboratory researchers, if the accuracy and repeatability of the results are important, a pipette calibration and maintenance program must be in place to ensure extremely high pipetting performance. Regular maintenance of the pipettes according to your needs and specific applications not only reduces pipetting errors, but also extends pipette life while avoiding rework and saving time and money.

Regular pipette service and calibration has become an essential task as GMP laboratories are subject to government regulations. But what about non-GMP laboratories (such as R&D labs)? Regardless of the type of laboratory, the accuracy and reproducibility of the experimental results are critical, and pipette calibration and routine maintenance are the most reliable way to minimize pipetting errors to maintain high levels of pipetting performance. .

As with any other laboratory precision instrument, pipettes also require regular maintenance to maintain optimum performance. Pipettes are made up of a variety of mechanical parts that, like other mechanical products, wear out over time.

For pipettes, the seal portion is most prone to wear. They can generally be used for up to one year or longer without seal leakage, depending on the use of the pipette.

However, over time, especially when the tip is installed, the force is manipulated or a "click" is struck, and the end of the sleeve is easily damaged.

The surface of the piston becomes tarnished and clean, especially when moving aggressive or corrosive samples, pitting corrosion occurs, resulting in unsealed and pipetting inaccurate pipetting.

It can be said that 95% of the pipette failures are related to the wear of the sealing system. Usually leaks are generally not discovered when they begin to appear, and are likely to be discovered until the accuracy and completeness of the study are affected. However, regular maintenance and calibration can be very effective in reducing the rate of failure of pipettes in the laboratory.

Generally, under normal use, the sealing part is preferably replaced at least once a year, and the shank part is replaced once a year or so, and the piston can generally maintain good performance for several years without replacement.

When purchasing pipettes, in addition to comprehensive consideration of brand, price, parameters and other factors, good after-sales service is also a top priority.

The IKA pipette is automatically calibrated by the user's own software and is easy to operate, suitable for all users.
