Thermo Fisher Scientific

Product Name:

S1 Pipet Filler

Catalog Number:

9521

Working with various liquid samples like dispensing bacteriological media or buffers used in biochemical assays require accurate and sterile dispensing using sterile serological pipettes of 10 and 25 ml volume. To work with fatigue free pipetting with serological pipettes, Thermo Fisher Scientific S1 pipet fillers are the best choice than any other automatic pipet fillers.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Application

Accurate dispensing of liquid samples using sterile serological pipettes

Starting Material

Bacterial liquid growth media and various buffers used in biochemical assays of volumes 10 and 25 ml

Protocol Overview

1. To use your S1 Pipet Filler, insert a pipet securely in the holder. To Aspirate, insert the sterile serological pipette (10 ml or 25 ml volume) into your sample and depress the upper trigger.2. To Dispense, insert the pipet into your chosen vessel and depress the lower trigger. (Partially depressing the trigger allows for controlled dispensing.)3. To Set The Pump Speed; Buttons on the rear of your S1 Pipet Filler unit allow you to set your aspiration (upper button) and dispense (lower button) speeds. Eight speeds are available for each function– simply push “+” for faster and “-” for slower. Your selection will be displayed on the lower portion of the pipettor’s LCD. A zero speed selection on dispense enables gravitydispensing.

Tips

Recommend changing pipet filter at least once in 3 months.
