Why Filtered Sterile Tips
Filter + sterility add critical protections for sensitive workflows:
- Filter (aerosol barrier) — prevents aerosol cross-contamination from sample to chassis interior (and back to next sample)
- Sterile (gamma-irradiated or autoclaved) — eliminates bacterial / fungal contamination risk
- Combined LRFS workflow delivers low-volume accuracy (LR) + cross-contamination control (Filter) + sterility (Sterile)
Pick the MP96-T200-LRFS when:
- Cell culture workflows at automated pipetting scale
- GMP / clinical / IVF labs with contamination-control compliance
- PCR contamination prevention — filter prevents cross-amplicon aerosol
- High-stakes assay workflows — drug-screening primary screens, diagnostic plate prep
Stay with MP96-T200-LR ($464.00) for non-sterile / buffer-prep workflows — saves $159.
