Pipetting – how to select the right pipette?

The new Transferpette® S and pipetting.

Pipetting different liquids with different specifications is everyday routine in the lab. But not all pipettes are suited for all applications. This webinar gives practical advice for the selection of the right technology and presents the new instruments Transferpette® S and HandyStep® touch. A live demonstration of the Transferpette® S is part of the agenda.

Professional test equipment monitoring for air displacement pipettes

Practical advice and support for the calibration of air displacement pipettes for a compliant and user-friendly implementation.

Test equipment monitoring according to ISO 9001 and GLP is becoming increasing importance in the laboratory. Consequently, regular pipette calibrations are essential. The user has the option of a calibration in-house or external. BRAND supports users in the context of test equipment monitoring with various offers. In the case of external calibrations, BRAND supports users as an independent partner. If the decision is made in favor of in-house pipette calibration, extensive support is required from the pipette manufacturers. BRAND also offers support in many respects for this.

 

Agenda:

  • Overview – requirements of GLP and DIN EN ISO 8655
  • How to conduct the gravimetric test
  • Pipette calibration
  • How functional testing can improve reliability and efficiency
  • Practical tipps and ressources for your work

Automatic pipetting - how to get started?

Which criteria need to be taken into account before acquiring a pipetting robot for the first time in order to make the introduction successful? 

The step from manual to automated pipetting seems simple at first glance. However, experience shows that many aspects need to be taken into consideration for the entry into automation in order to be able to use the advantages of automatic processes in a practical way. These criteria will be presented and discussed in this webinar.

Agenda:

  • Reasons and requirements for automatic pipetting
  • Main differences between manual and automatic pipetting
  • Planning automated protocols
  • Basics of working with pippeting robots such as the BRAND Liquid Handling Station

HandyStep® touch S, DE-M, inclusive universal AC adapter and shelf/rack mount

Repetitive pipettes are the first choice when it comes to efficient dispensing of long series. Positive displacement pipettes are often the right solution for pipetting viscous media. The new stepper HandyStep® touch from BRAND combines both features. With the touchscreen display, you conveniently swipe back and forth between functions and always have an overview of the essential information on your work steps. Operation is easy, even with protective gloves on. And speaking of easy, the days of manually changing tips are over. On the HandyStep® touch, lightly tapping on the Eject icon on the display is enough to eject the tip. The HandyStep® touch repetitive pipette automatically recognizes the volume of the new BRAND PD- Tips II. This saves time and reduces the risk of error. Tips from many other manufacturers can also be used, providing maximum flexibility. Charging is easy and efficient: simply place the HandyStep® touch in the inductive charging stand and the battery automatically starts charging. Overview - Touchscreen operation with intuitive menu navigation in English, German, Spanish, French and Chinese - HandyStep® touch with the features multi-dispensing, auto-dispensing and pipetting; HandyStep® touch S with the additional features sequential dispensing, multi-aspiration and titration - Automatic size detection of BRAND PD-Tips II - Compatible with PD-Tips prior to the PD-Tips II generation and with tips from many other manufacturers: for example, Encode™ tips, Repet-Tips®, Combitips®, Combitips® plus, Combitips® advanced (the above-mentioned brands are property of their respective owners) - Automatic tip ejection - Variable volume adjustment from 1.0 μl to 50 ml - Easy to clean thanks to smooth surface without grooves and edges - Inductively rechargeable Limitations of use: Operating temperature of instrument and reagent should be between +15 °C and +40 °C (59 °F to 104 °F) (other temperatures upon request) Vapor pressure up to 500 mbar Viscosity: At 50 ml PD-Tip: 20 mPa s; at 5 ml PD-Tip: 260 mPa s; at 1,25 ml PD-Tip: 977 mPa
