• Selected volume is displayed in the large 4-digit volume display
• Quick and accurate volume settings
• Available as single-, 8-, 12-, 16- and 24-channel as well as Move It adjustable tip spacing pipettes

Fixed-volume pipettes for a fast and reliable workflow
• Work at a faster pace with fixed set volumes
• Reduce the chance of errors compared to a pipette with variable volume
• Fast and easy calibration
• Available as single-channel pipettes in 12 different variants
• Perfect for beginners and labs on a budge

Choose the correct pipette set for your application needs

Not all experiments are based on the same working conditions. Depending on the vessel type, you can choose from single-channel microliter pipettes that are ideal for tubes, and multi-channel pipettes better suited for plates.

• Tubes: Single-channel pipettes with fixed or variable volume
• 96- and 24-well plates: 8- and 12-channel pipettes
• 384-well plates: 16- and 24-channel pipettes
• Vessel type changes: Move It adjustable tip spacing pipettes

Fatigue-free and ergonomic pipetting

The Eppendorf Research plus microliter pipette is intuitive to operate, provides a perfect balance and minimizes operator strain and fatigue, developed in line with the Eppendorf PhysioCare Concept. The result is an ultra-light and well-balanced pipette, equipped with the unique spring-loaded tip cone and SOFTeject features. Operating forces can be reduced even further by combining the Research plus 16- and 24- channel pipettes with the epT.I.P.S^® 384 pipette tips with SOFTattach technology.

Spring-loaded tip cone for reliable tip fit and effortless attachment

The spring-loaded tip cone saves you time and energy. With haptic feedback, all it takes is one gentle push-down for easy tip attachment. The spring limits the attachment forces and at the same time guarantees a reproducible and safe tip fit. This clever design provides increased user-to-user reproducibility and more consistent results between different lab members. All micropipettes from Eppendorf up to 1,000 µL (except Move It^® 300 µL models) are equipped with the spring-loaded tip cone feature.

SOFTeject reduces tip ejection forces by 50 %

All non-adjustable multi-channel pipettes from Eppendorf use the innovative SOFTeject technology to ensure that during each single tip ejection stroke, the outside tips eject before the inside tips. This is not noticeable to the user but reduces tip ejection forces by 50 %. You just lightly press the ejection button once and the tips are automatically ejected in succession.

Speed up your workflows with mechanical multi-channel pipettes

Do you need to easily and quickly fill a 24-, 96- or even 384-well microplate? With the lightweight Eppendorf Research plus 8-, 12-, 16- and 24-channel pipettes you can perform high volume precision work faster. The spring-loaded tip cones help you to load multi-channel tips quickly and securely without a need for rocking. Get extremely consistent sample pickup across all channels and maximize user-to-user reproducibility for more consistent results among members of the lab.

96-well plates
Easily fill 96-well plates with Research plus 8- or 12-channel pipettes featuring a cone distance of 9 mm. Our 1,200 µL volume pipettes are ideal for filling deepwell plates.
