Pipette tips look simple, but the wrong tip can cost far more than the box: inaccurate volumes, aerosol contamination, stripped pipette collars, or a rack that does not fit your pipette. This guide explains what to check before ordering pipette tips in Singapore, and how the ACESUN range covers the three most common working volumes.
| Application | Typical tip | Filter | Packaging |
|---|---|---|---|
| PCR, qPCR, molecular biology | 10 µL / 200 µL | Filtered, sterile, DNase/RNase-free | Racked |
| Cell culture and sterile work | 200 µL / 1000 µL | Filtered, sterile | Racked |
| General chemistry and dilutions | 200 µL / 1000 µL | Non-filtered | Bulk bag |
| Automated liquid handlers | Hamilton / Tecan formats | Conductive, filtered | Racked |
| Volume | Format | Sterility | Typical packaging |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 µL | Universal, long, low-retention | Sterile or non-sterile | 1000 tips/bag, 40 bags/carton |
| 200 µL | Universal, yellow or clear, low-retention | Sterile or non-sterile | 1000 tips/bag or racked |
| 1000 µL | Universal, wide-bore or standard | Sterile or non-sterile | 1000 tips/bag or racked |
| 300 µL | Hamilton / Tecan automation, conductive | Filtered | 1000 tips/bag, 20 bags/carton |
Use filtered tips when the sample or the pipette barrel must stay free of aerosol carry-over: PCR and qPCR, viral work, cell culture, and any application where a contaminated barrel would invalidate the next sample. The filter is a barrier, not a sterilisation step — pair it with sterile tips when working aseptically.
Non-filtered tips are usually sufficient for general chemistry, buffer preparation, and non-critical dilutions. They are also cheaper per tip when you consume thousands per week.
Racked tips save bench time and reduce contamination risk, but cost more and generate more plastic waste. Bulk bags are the economical choice for high-volume routine work; many labs use racks for PCR and bulk bags for general chemistry. If you are transitioning to automation, confirm the rack footprint and the tip format with your instrument vendor first.
ACESUN universal tips are designed for common single-channel and multi-channel pipettes, including Eppendorf, Gilson, Thermo Scientific and Sartorius models. Compatibility depends on the specific model and year, so we recommend a small fit test before a carton-scale order. Free samples are available for evaluation in Singapore.
Tips are produced in controlled moulding conditions and tested for dimensional consistency. For regulated labs, request the lot-specific documentation you need for your supplier qualification — for example sterility, DNase/RNase, or endotoxin statements where applicable. We will confirm what is available for the exact SKU rather than make a blanket claim.
Fast-moving tip sizes are held in Singapore and typically ship within 1–2 business days. Bulk and automation formats may be supplied from the regional warehouse; lead time is confirmed at quotation. Combine tips with centrifuge tubes, Petri dishes and other consumables to reduce shipping cost.
They are designed as universal tips for common single-channel and multi-channel pipettes, including Eppendorf and Gilson. Because fit varies by model, test a sample before ordering cartons.
Use filtered tips for PCR, cell culture, viral work and any application where aerosol carry-over matters. Non-filtered tips are fine for general chemistry and routine dilutions.
DNase/RNase-free options are available. Tell us your assay and documentation requirements so we can confirm the exact SKU and lot documentation.
Racked tips are ready to use and reduce contamination risk; bulk bags are more economical for high-volume routine work. Many labs use both.
Yes, conductive filtered tips for Hamilton and Tecan formats are available. Confirm the instrument model and rack format when requesting a quote.
