www.PipetmanL.com Winner!

CONGRATULATIONS to Anthony Sutter of Proteos, Inc.!

In October, Gilson offered a chance to register on www.PipetmanL.com to win a free PIPETMAN® L mechanical pipette.  The newest in the PIPETMAN family, PIPETMAN L was created based on ergonomics, comfort and traceability research.  It combines the PIPETMAN Classic™ legendary robustness, a newly designed body, and state-of-the-art internal mechanism for secure locking of the volume.   This unique patented volume locking system fully disconnects the operating rod from the counter assembly during pipetting phases so once locked into pace (with just a push of the thumbwheel!), the volume will not be accidentally changed.

Anthony Sutter, Cell Biology Scientist with Proteos, was presented with his free PIPETMAN P100L, by Ryan Luther Gilson Sales & Service Representative, last month.  Proteos is a small company housed in the Southwest Michigan Innovation Center in Kalamazoo, MI.  The company specializes in protein production, expression and purification.  The new Gilson PIPETMAN was a much appreciated addition to his lab and will be used in several techniques they employ:

·         Preparing and loading samples to run SDS-PAGE/Western blot

·         Preparing samples for plate based protein assays (96-well)

·         Performing mammalian and insect cell transfections

Thank you to everyone who registered on www.PipetmanL.com for the chance to win the free PIPETMAN L.  Register for our bi-monthly newsletters for more opportunities to win PIPETMAN products from Gilson by clicking here.

PIPETMAN® M Multichannel - Motorized Pipetting...Multiplied!

Gilson, Inc. has announced the release of the PIPETMAN® M Multichannel, the new electronic and motorized extension of the PIPETMAN M family of pipettes and the latest evolution of the Gilson PIPETMAN.

This pipette combines the PIPETMAN M single channel’s motorized functionality and ease of use with the PIPETMAN Neo Multichannel’s increased throughput capability. The new PIPETMAN M Multichannel was designed specifically for use with 96- and 384-well microplates and is available in 8 and 12 channels for 2 volume ranges: 1-20 µL and 20-200 µL.

Designed with both experienced and inexperienced users in mind, PIPETMAN M is intuitive, requires no learning curve to master, and simplifies daily work. Always operational, the PIPETMAN M Multichannel saves you time as it can be used while charging! Like the PIPETMAN Neo Multichannel, the PIPETMAN M Multichannel utilizes a Gilson Trident and unique tip spacer to distribute ejection forces evenly over each tip, reducing the tip ejection forces. The motorized piston virtually eliminates pipetting variability among users and the adjustable piston speed allows users to pipette denser samples with accuracy and confidence.

PIPETMAN M Multichannel offers a patented piston drive mechanism that guarantees equal pressure and consistent volume levels across all channels when aspirating and dispensing. Similar to the PIPETMAN M single channel, the PIPETMAN M Multichannel boasts four essential pipetting modes, reverse, mix, repetitive and pipetting, and presents the same high reproducibility, accuracy and precision as the original Gilson PIPETMAN.

Like other PIPETMAN families, the PIPETMAN M Multichannel features a unique tip holder design allowing a snug fit of most leading brands, so there is no need for a dedicated tip brand. Additional GLP features include a lockable volume, traceable serial number, color coded push-buttons for easy identification and service alert reminders. Gilson also offers a Power Carrousel for charging up to 5 pipettes as an accessory for both Single and Multichannel PIPETMAN M models.
