Overview
Corning supplies this Costar Stripette as a large-volume sterile serological pipet in aqua. The paper and plastic wrap opens by pop-through or peel-apart, and it reduces static cling when handled with gloves.
The reason to buy is sterile large-volume transfer with easy opening wrap. The limitation is that the listing gives no tolerance figure, no pipettor compatibility and no guidance on handling or disposal.
Who it's for
Culture labs that transfer large liquid volumes in sterile conditions. Small-volume work should use a smaller pipet size for better reading resolution.
Pros and cons
- Sterile, individually wrapped
- Large volume capacity
- Wrap reduces static cling
- Color coded aqua
- Coarse graduation interval
- Tolerance not listed
- Pipettor fit not listed
Performance notes
A wide barrel holds a large volume, and the interval is coarse, so readings are less precise than on small pipets. The wrap lets the pipet be removed aseptically.
