The role and use of Filter Tip

The role and use of filter Tip:

The filter of the filter tip is machine loaded to ensure that the tip is completely unaffected during the manufacturing and packaging process. They are certified to be free of RNase, DNase, DNA and pyrogen contamination. In addition, all filters are pre-sterilized by radiation after packaging to enhance the protection of biological samples.
Because the filter tip is a disposable filter tip, the biggest function during use is to prevent cross-contamination: Unlike other filter types that contain additives that can inhibit enzymatic reactions, Rollmed’s filtered pipette tips are made of pure Made of original sintered polyethylene. Hydrophobic polyethylene particles prevent aerosols and liquids from being sucked into the pipette body.

The use of filter tips can be used to prevent the pipette from being damaged by the sample and greatly increase the service life of the pipette.

When to use filter tips:

When to use the filter tip technique? Filter pipette tips must be used in all molecular biology applications that are sensitive to contamination. The filter tip helps reduce the possibility of smoke formation, prevents aerosol contamination, and thus protects the pipette shaft from cross-contamination. In addition, the filter barrier prevents the sample from being carried away from the pipette, thereby preventing PCR contamination.

The filter tip also prevents the sample from entering the pipette and causing damage to the pipette during pipetting.

Why is it necessary to use filter tips to detect viruses?

The test samples are different, and the filter tip can organize the cross-contamination of the sample during the pipetting process.

The virus is contagious. If the filter tip is not used to isolate the virus in the sample during the virus detection process, it will cause the virus to be transmitted through the pipette
