As far as pipetting is concerned, results rely equally on users’ choice of pipette and pipette tip. The ideal fitting pipette tips for Sartorius pipettes are Safetyspace® Filter Tips and Optifit standard pipette tips. They guarantee the performance of Sartorius pipettes and repeatability of results like no other tip can.

Tips to achieve results
Accurate results depend on using pipette tips that fit well with the pipette. Sartorius pipette tips are specifically made to work with Sartorius pipettes, ensuring a good match. Sometimes, a poor fit can lead to leaks or the tip falling off the pipette, but these are just the obvious problems. The right fit is important for precise measurements and reliable data, and it involves more than just preventing leaks or keeping the tip attached.
Purity
For the most demanding applications, users should select pipette tips with high purity and quality standards. Sartorius pipette tips’ purity level addresses the demands of even biopharmaceutical development.

Single Tray Tips
As per pharmacopeia limits, Sartorius single tray pipette tips feature a color-code tray matching with pipettes and are RNase, DNase, human DNA and endotoxin-free. Users can select ready-to-use sterile pipette tips or completely autoclavable non-sterile tips.

Refill Tips
The ecological refill tips come in a convenient tower format or in a purity-certified single refill package, which is also available as a sterilized version. Users can significantly decrease their environmental impact when they replace their empty tray from refill packages and re-use the empty tip boxes from their lab.

Bulk Tips
The Flexibulk packaging design offers practical and environmental benefits for laboratory. It reduces the amount of space required for storage, contains less plastic compared to single tray products and consequently lowers the environmental impact during transport. The bulk pipette tips are certified for purity, and they include a lid that can be closed again after use. Refilling empty racks with these tips is more straightforward than with previously used bagged tips which saves time and effort in your laboratory.
