Rainin Pipettes provide excellent performance, ease of use, and durability. They dispense liquid samples into various receptacles, creating gradients in reagent layering and cell culture applications.
They work on the positive displacement method, which involves direct contact between the piston and liquid sample. This design reduces the risk of repetitive strain injury.
The Pipet-Lite XLS is the industry’s most advanced manual pipette, designed for ergonomics, performance and reliability. It features a comfortable handhold, easy-to-read digital volume settings and automatic calibration tracking. It’s also autoclavable, which helps keep your workspace clean and hygienic. The new snag-proof lock design prevents accidental volume drift, and the light weight provides fatigue-free pipetting without compromising accuracy or precision.
The XLS+ series is up to 35% lighter than other multichannel pipettes. This makes them easier to maneuver and easier on your hands, even after long shifts of pipetting. Combined with Rainin’s patented LiteTouch System, the XLS+ pipettes deliver exceptional accuracy and performance while maintaining unparalleled ease of use.
This manual multichannel pipette features a comfortable grip and is available in several volume ranges from 2 to 12 microliters. It includes a patented LTS tip and nozzle design that minimizes ejection force, making it more comfortable to work with. Unlike traditional glass pipettes, the XLS+ pipes have a thin sealing ring near the tip that eliminates friction between the piston and shaft. This reduces ejection force and improves aspiration and dispensing performance.
A key feature of the XLS+ pipettes is that they are easy to read, with a large LCD screen that displays the current volume set and readings. This makes it simple to monitor the dispensed and aspirated volumes to ensure consistent compliance with your laboratory standards. XLS+ pipettes also have an embedded RFID tag that can be used with the SmartStand, SmartCheck and Rainin’s asset management software to track each pipette’s location, calibration and maintenance. This makes them ideal for regulatory controlled labs.
The snag-proof lock design on XLS+ pipettes prevents accidental volume drift while allowing for smoother rapid volume adjustment, even when wearing gloves. A lighter spring, low-drag seals and RAININ’s patented Magnetic Assist technology gives you a plunger that is both smooth and precise and requires less force than ever.
The XLS+ single-channel pipettes are autoclavable where it matters most, the liquid end, including the seals and piston. The snag-proof lock design and improved ergonomics provide a better feel while ensuring reliable, repeatable performance.
Pipet-Plus
Designed to provide total hand comfort with lower spring forces while maintaining supreme accuracy and precision, the Pipet-Plus R20 pipettor is an ideal solution for molecular biology and pharmaceutical research. Its smooth and responsive plunger allows for total control, while the secure volume lock averts accidental drift and allows easy one-hand adjustment. Its upgraded ejector and shaft assembly also makes it easy to clean and autoclave.
The Pipet-Plus features a unique Latch Mode mechanism that holds the piston at a zero position when the trigger is activated and eliminates “blowout”. The body of the pipette also has a controller that allows users to choose between fast or slow operation. This feature makes it easier for different technicians to work in the same lab with the same pipette without having to adjust the aspiration rate.
In addition to their low pipetting forces, the Pipet-Plus pipettes are comfortable to use and ergonomically designed to minimize risk of RSI. They have a nice fit in the hand that reduces the force needed to hold them, and they are color-coded to make it easy to match them with their fitted tips. They also have a large display that shows the volume being used.
These Rainin pipettors are made to be extremely durable, so you can expect to get a lot of mileage out of them. They are also very affordable, which makes them a great choice for labs of any size. In addition to their durability, these pipettors have a low plunger force and are chemically resistant.

EDP3
Rainin EDP3 is an electronic pipette set that allows users to aspirate and dispense liquid volumes with precision, accuracy and ease. Each pipette features a large display screen and user-friendly key pad for easy volume adjustment and mode selection. Each pipette is capable of operating in multiple functions including multidispense mode, manual mode, dilute mode, and titrate mode. It also comes with a regulated power supply that can charge three EDP3-Plus pipettes in sequence. To help extend battery life, the display screen “sleeps” after ten minutes of inactivity and can be awakened with a press of a button or trigger.
Unlike traditional pipettes that use a plunger system, EDP3 uses a microprocessor to control aspirating and dispensing. This eliminates the subjectivity and potential inaccuracy that is inherent in analog systems. It also allows for a more accurate volume reading because the digital system eliminates the need to manually adjust the plunger.
The software on each EDP3 pipette also includes the option to autopace dispensing. This allows users to set volumes that will automatically dispense repeatedly, which decreases the risk of user error and improves productivity. The simple software and clear display make the EDP3 pipette a useful tool for any lab.
The EDP3 also incorporates ergonomic features to reduce the risk of repetitive stress injuries. The finger hook and dual triggers are designed to comfortably fit into users’ thumbs and reduce the pressure required for repeat pipetting. It also has a finely tuned tip ejector that requires low ejection forces to prevent excessive hand and arm stress.
Pipette Tips
The pipette tip is the bridge between the pipettor and the liquid sample, and it plays a vital role in ensuring accurate and precise measurement and transfer of fluid samples. Choosing the right tip can reduce experimental errors, prevent costly waste of samples and reagents, and protect researchers from physical harm in the form of repetitive stress injury (RSI). There are many different types of pipette tips to choose from, each designed for specific applications. Some are sterile and used for applications that require a high level of contamination control, while others are non-sterile and can be safely re-used.
When purchasing pipette tips, it is important to ensure they are of high quality and free from contamination. To do so, look for a label that lists the product’s manufacturer information and cleanliness protocol. In addition, make sure the bulk packaging is free of any type of contamination. A good pipette tip will also be free of DNase, RNase, pyrogens, and PCB inhibitors, which are all contaminants that can interfere with the results of biological assays.
Another feature of a good pipette tip is its ergonomic design, which helps reduce hand and wrist strain. In general, ergonomically designed tips require lower insertion and ejection forces to operate. This feature can help you avoid slamming the pipettor for a tight seal and prevent RSI.
In addition to their ergonomic features, pipette tips should be made of high-quality materials and comply with laboratory standards. The quality of the materials and manufacturing process will affect the performance of the pipette, as well as the precision and accuracy of measurements. The best pipette tips are manufactured in cleanrooms using specialized equipment to minimize risk of contamination.
Specialized pipette tips are designed to suit distinct applications, such as a gel loading tip for agarose or acrylamide electrophoresis. These tips are typically round or flat, with a positive displacement collar that helps minimize shear force during piping. They also have a low retention surface that eliminates the need to re-wette the tip after each use. This reduces evaporation and provides better data fidelity.
