INTEGRA Biosciences AG has introduced a new Liquid Handling Set that significantly aids scientists in keeping their cell culture work streamlined and organised when pipetting and aspirating liquids.

Successful manipulation of cell cultures relies on the ability to maintain sterility and to avoid cross contamination between cell lines. Proficiency in cell culturing can be greatly enhanced by a highly controlled workflow and a well-organised work area.

The new Liquid Handling Set includes a PIPETBOY pipetting aid for accurately transferring media and buffers with serological pipettes, a VACUBOY hand operator for efficient vacuum removal of media and cell culture supernatants and a VACUSAFE comfort all-inone aspiration system that ensures safe handling and containment of liquids.

The set unites the PIPETBOY and VACUBOY in a unique holding stand that ensures efficient use of the sterile area in your biological safety cabinet. Always organised in the optimum ergonomic position, the liquid handling tools are maintained within easy reach for fast, safe and effortless handling of cell cultures. Furthermore the stand allows users to ‘park’ their PIPETBOY with inserted pipette thereby minimising the risk of contamination and making most economic use of sterile pipettes. Available with a range of aspirator adapters, the VACUBOY facilitates simple and rapid changing between applications. Constructed from stainless steel the liquid handling set stand is extremely durable and may be easily cleaned and sterilised.
