Product catalog summary

Overview

This document provides detailed technical information on Sarstedt's liquid handling products, specifically designed for PCR and molecular biology applications. It includes product specifications, purity standards, compatibility tables, packaging options, and application recommendations.

1. Quality and Purity Standards

  • PCR Performance Tested Quality: Products are DNA-free, DNase/RNase-free, and PCR inhibitor-free with stringent limits on contaminant levels (Human DNA < 0.5 pg/μl, Bacterial DNA < 0.02 pg/μl, DNase < 1x10-5 U/μl, RNase < 1x10-9 Kunitz units/μl).
  • Biosphere® plus Quality: Enhanced purity including sterility, ATP-free, non-pyrogenic/endotoxin-free, with even lower contaminant thresholds (Human DNA < 5.0 fg/μl, Bacterial DNA < 0.2 fg/μl, DNase < 5x10-7 U/μl, RNase < 5x10-11 Kunitz units/μl, ATP < 1x10-12 mmol/μl, Pyrogens < 0.002 EU/ml).
  • Sterility is validated according to ISO 11135 and conformity testing follows ISO 8655-2 standards.

2. Product Compatibility and Pipette Tips

  • A comprehensive compatibility table matches Sarstedt tips with various pipette types and volumes, indicating compatibility (●), limited volume use (10), or non-recommendation (✗).
  • Tip types include filter tips and tips without filters, available in multiple volumes ranging from 0.1 μl to 10 ml and beyond.
  • Packaging options include economical Tip StackPack, reload trays, and bulk-bagged tips suitable for autoclaving and manual racking.
  • Color-coded trays and order numbers facilitate easy identification and selection.

3. PCR Plates and Microplates

  • Various PCR plates are offered with different well numbers (96, 384), skirt types (full, half, none), and well profiles (high, low).
  • Plates are compatible with a wide range of thermocyclers from major manufacturers such as Applied Biosystems, BioRad, Eppendorf, Roche, and others, as detailed in the compatibility matrix.
  • Special features include fluorescence enhancement (10x higher fluorescence level), improved sensitivity, and reproducibility.
  • Packaging formats include bags, blister packs, and boxes with clear or white wells.

4. Tubes and Racks

  • Screw cap micro tubes designed for transport, storage, and sample preparation are compatible with a range of tube sizes in one rack.
  • Racks are rotatable, exchangeable, and suitable for temperature ranges from -80°C to 121°C.
  • Dimensions and ordering information for racks and tube handlers are provided.

5. Additional Products and Automation

  • ELISA plates for immunoanalytics and IVARO Tube Handler XS for automated tube processing are mentioned as part of the product portfolio.
  • Microbiology sample collection and processing products are also referenced.

6. Packaging and Ordering Information

  • Detailed order numbers, packaging units (units per bag, case), and color codes are provided for all product types.
  • Packaging options emphasize ease of use, space-saving, and environmental considerations.

Critical Information and Best Practices

  • Ensure selection of pipette tips compatible with your pipette model and volume range using the provided compatibility tables.
  • Use Biosphere® plus products for applications requiring the highest purity and sterility.
  • Follow sterility and purity standards to avoid contamination in sensitive PCR and molecular biology workflows.
  • Refer to compatibility charts for PCR plates to ensure thermocycler compatibility and optimal assay performance.
  • Utilize packaging options that facilitate sterile handling and reduce contamination risk.
