Researchers involved in the growing field of flow cytometry have discovered that many of our standard products for liquid handling are ideal off-the-shelf components for automated sample preparation, handling, mixing, and delivery.
M Series syringe-free pump
The patented M Series liquid handling pump is a syringe-free pump capable of delivering a bidirectional flow to six orders of magnitude.
Cheminert liquid handling valves
Stream selectors and switching valves are available for 1/16", 1/8", or 1/4" OD tubing. Most are available in 4, 6, 8, and 10 port configurations.
Cheminert fittings
Cheminert fittings are ideally suited for applications requiring an inert, biocompatible, metal-free flowpath. Wetted materials are PFA, FEP, CTFE, or PEEK. The wide selection of adapters allows connection to male and female luers, 360 micron, 1/32", 1/16", 1/8", and 1/4" metal and plastic tubing, 1/8" and 1/4" pipe thread, and glass tubing.
PEEK tubing
PEEK tubing has the strength required to withstand continuous use at HPLC pressure without swelling or bursting, and is not affected by halide salts, high strength buffers, or other aggressive mobile phases that corrode stainless steel. The polymer surface will not leach metal ions into the eluent or extract metal-sensitive components from the sample.
