Overview

Dispensing small volumes of culture media or buffer is what this Costar Stripette pipet is used for. It is made of polystyrene, supplied sterile and individually paper and plastic wrapped, with blue color coding.

The reason to buy is sterile individual packaging in a fine graduation interval for small volumes. The limitation is the sparse listing: no tolerance, pipettor compatibility or opening instructions are given, and the case size is large.

Who it's for

Cell and tissue culture benches that use a fresh sterile pipet for each transfer. Small groups or teaching labs wanting a few pipets will find a full case more than they need.
