Eppendorf is providing an exclusive behind the scenes video look at the production of consumables and providing insight into the company’s exceptional quality control throughout the whole manufacturing process. The new video, available on the company’s website, demonstrates Eppendorf’s commitment to delivering consistently high quality and reliable consumables for the laboratory.

In a well-received report in Science from 2008, Dr. Andrew Holt and his group from the University of Alberta, Canada, described how chemicals used as manufacturing additives can substantially inhibit enzymatic assays and binding studies by leaching into samples from plastic consumables. Eppendorf recently visited Dr. Holt’s pharmacology lab with a film crew to ask him how experimental data can be affected and what he recommends to other scientists to ensure unaffected and reproducible results.

Eppendorf AG has upgraded epT.I.P.S. Motion, offering new colour-coded trays for instant identification of tip volume, and introducing eco-friendly Reload trays with 40 per cent less packaging.

Eppendorf launches new Protein LoBind Deepwell Plate 96/2000 µl and extends the Eppendorf LoBind product portfolio to 96-well high volume plate formats. The unique format flexibility enables customers to easily up-scale their experiments and achieve the same high quality results.
