Product Info
Kelabscience conductive pipette tips are manufactured from high-quality conductive polypropylene (PP) and are designed for use in automated liquid handling systems, as part of our broader range of laboratory liquid handling consumables used in automated workflows. For workflows requiring aerosol contamination control, laboratories may also use filter pipette tips.
The conductive material formulation allows the tips to support liquid level detection (LLD) functions commonly used in automated pipetting platforms, helping maintain reliable aspiration performance during routine laboratory workflows.
The product series covers commonly used capacities for robotic liquid handling applications, with representative configurations including 250 µL and 1000 µL conductive tips. These tips are intended for laboratories operating automated pipetting systems where consistent tip geometry and stable material properties are required.
The tips feature a precision-molded structure with smooth internal surfaces and consistent dimensional control. This design supports reliable robotic tip pickup and ejection while helping reduce liquid retention during aspiration and dispensing steps.
The conductive polypropylene material also provides stable performance under common laboratory sterilization conditions, allowing autoclave sterilization at 121 °C for 15 minutes when required.
