PR1MA™ Pipette Tips were meticulously designed using a specially formulated NoStick® resin to provide researchers with the highest level of liquid handling performance. PR1MA™ Pipette Tips were created with the belief that when it comes to liquid handling, less is more.

• Less Fluid Retention
• Less Sample Loss
• Less Time Spent
• Less Plastic Wasted

Filtered tips have a hydrophobic HDPE barrier that won't contaminate or impede airflow.

PR1MA™ Pipette Tips are produced under strict controls and an ISO9001 certified Quality Assurance process. They are manufactured with a state of the art fully automated tip manufacturing, filtering and inspecting which is incomparable in our industry.

LOW RETENTION
The PR1MA™ NoStick® tips offer users an even higher degree of fluid confidence and control. The inner surface of our NoStick® tip is considerably more hydrophobic than standard industry tips enabling viscous fluids to be dispensed more completely. Less fluid retention. Less sample loss. PR1MA™ tips prove that less is more when it comes to liquid handling!

CLEAN LIQUID RELEASE
PR1MA™ tips are purposely designed for a much cleaner liquid release. Less time spent waiting for the final drop to fall from the end of a tip. Our thinner walls and more finely tapered tip construction will eliminate the need to touch off. Users will maintain complete fluid control working with smaller Vols, and yet will not have to compromise their pipetting accuracy or precision.

• PR1MA™ PCR Plates have uniformed wells and ultra-thin walls provide optimal heat transfer and reaction efficiency.
• Fits most thermal cyclers.
• High Contrast black alphanumerics for easy well identification.
• Reclosable bags minimize contamination risk and are convenient for opening and closing.
• For use in medical, pharmaceutical, food industry, and molecular biology.
• Barcoded versions available upon special order. 
• Certified free of detectable RNase, DNase, NA, PCR inhibitors, and tested pyrogen-free
• PR-PCR2196F has a frosted surface for optimal fluorescence detection.  A frosted surface reduces background noise that can interfere with quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR).

Two Cap Styles: To suit customer preference:

• Large, boil-resistant (MCT17) caps are easy to open & close, with a large labeling surface. Max Fill 1.7 mL with caps open and 1.5 with caps closed. 

Crystal-Clear Polymer: Facilitates visualization of samples.

G-Force: Rated to 20,000 x g.  

Graduations: every 100 µL for easy volume estimation.

Low Retention: Available with proprietary NoStick® resin to ensure maximum sample recovery.

Temperature Range: -80° C to +121° C.

Certified: Free of detectable RNase, DNase, DNA, PCR inhibitors, and tested pyrogen-free. Sterile product is certified pyrogen-free.
 

• Powerful motor for INSTANT vortexing
• Continuous or “touch” operation
• Q-Drive™ dynamic balancing system
• Variable speed from 200 to 3200 rpm
• Wide variety of accessories

The PR1MA™ Vortex Mixer sets the new standard in vortex mixing. With advanced Q-Drive™ technology, the PR1MA™ Vortex Mixer provides smooth instant vortexing of even the largest sample sizes, including full 50 mL tubes. The unique counter-balance system creates maximum vortexing action, while minimizing noise and excessive vibration. This results in quieter, more efficient and longer lasting operation.

Other features include: “no-walk” suction feet, cold room/incubator compatibility and spill-proof electronic controls.

PR1MA™ MyVolt Touch Power Supply

• Touch screen control
• Bright color display
• Dual orientation, auto rotating display

The PR1MA™ MyVolt™ Touch is a work horse electrophoresis power supply, ideal for efficient separation of nucleic acids and proteins as well as basic western blotting applications. Four pairs of output jacks are wired in parallel for connecting multiple electrophoresis tanks. A color touch screen allows quick setting and monitoring of all run conditions, including run time, voltage, and current. Users can select “Constant Current” or “Constant Voltage” during an electrophoresis run, keeping the chosen parameter fixed as resistance changes. The dual orientation design with rotating display allows the MyVolt™ Touch to be installed in the most convenient location, on a shelf or bench, saving valuable space.

The PR1MA™ MyVolt™ Touch features a logical user interface. Setting up an electrophoresis run couldn’t be easier; simply touch the parameter to select it, press the “up” and “down” arrows to adjust the value, and then touch “Start”. All parameters are always displayed, with no need to toggle between Time, Voltage or Amperage. In addition, the run status is always displayed.

• PR1MA™ PCR Plates have uniformed wells and ultra-thin walls provide optimal heat transfer and reaction efficiency.
• Fits most thermal cyclers.
• High Contrast black alphanumerics for easy well identification.
• Reclosable bags minimize contamination risk and are convenient for opening and closing.
• For use in medical, pharmaceutical, food industry, and molecular biology.
