EP tubes are a commonly used type of consumable in laboratories, typically for nucleic acid extraction and purification, protein expression, cell culture, etc. Additionally, in the process of establishing and managing biobanks, EP tubes can be used to store biological samples such as blood, urine, tissues, and feces. After sample collection and processing, they can be aliquoted into several EP tubes for low-temperature storage. In genetic synthesis laboratories, EP tubes are commonly used as containers for aliquoting primers and plasmids.
If you are a technician performing lab operations,
when faced with a large number of EP tubes,
have you ever experienced the following?
Manually opening caps, only able to open one EP tube cap at a time, which is slow and inefficient in high-throughput sample requirements;
Manually opening EP tube caps repeatedly, causing finger soreness, broken nails, or even potentially leading to tenosynovitis;
Manually opening caps with uneven force, causing the cap to spring open and reagents to splash, leading to contamination;
Manually opening caps with gloves possibly coming into contact with the cap or the inside of the tube, causing cross-contamination.
To avoid these unfriendly operations and further promote a harmonious lab environment, we have combined user experiences and introduced a fully automatic EP tube cap opening and closing liquid handling workstation to solve the pain points in the EP tube handling process, allowing you to complete experiments easily, safely, and healthily.
Vitae Lids EP Fully Automatic EP Tube Cap Opening and Closing Liquid Handling Workstation
8-Channel Cap Opening and Closing Module, Fast and Stable
The EP tube cap opening and closing liquid handling workstation features a safe and stable 8-channel cap opening and closing module, compatible with most 1.5ml/2ml EP tubes on the market, enabling simultaneous cap operations for up to 8 EP tubes. The uniquely designed mechanical cap opening and closing module and stable action control effectively prevent reagent splatter caused by abrupt openings and closings.
4-Channeled Independent Liquid Handling Module, Precise Liquid Handling
With the 4-channeled independent liquid handling module, samples or reagents can be transferred from the reagent slot to EP tubes, EP tubes to 96-well plates, or EP tubes to EP tubes, thus facilitating the pre-treatment of samples for different downstream detection projects, saving manpower and improving work efficiency.
