Safety in the Laboratory - Pipetting
Pipetting safety is at the heart of Biohit's innovations. First to realise the importance of reducing the likelihood of Work Related Upper Limb Disorders (WRULD's) and specifically RSI, the electronic pipette has helped many people daily. The study of the causes of RSI with external bodies led to the implementation of key designs elements in all the pipettes available through Biohit and has continued to be a very important factor.
Biohit pipettes, whether electronic of mechanical are designed for minimal use of force, especially those related to thumb pressure (aspirate, dispense, blow out and tip eject), leading to several patents, not least the electronic tip eject mechanism on the eLINE units
To support this system approach to pipetting, Biohit also manufacturers high quality tips and accessories. Even the accessories and tips are designed with safety of user and sample in mind. Tips with filters and tip cones with filters provide a double barrier system protecting the pipette from internal contamination and the sample from cross contamination. The pipette tips and their filters are designed to allow maximum space above the fluid head to avoid overaspiration and sample loss or inaccuracy. In fact everything we do is designed to minimise risk and maximise accuracy and throughput!
In addition to providing in depth sales support and training through its pipetting academy, after care support is also available through Biohit certified service centres and it's Pipette Doctor franchises.
