The Model P-30 vertical
micropipette puller is designed for the fabrication of
basic micropipettes and patch-type pipettes. It will
pull micropipettes with tip diameters as small as
0.3µm and moderate taper lengths (10 to 15mm). Using
an included patching attachment, the P-30 will pull
the standard double pull patch-type pipette. Used with
thin wall glass capillaries it will generate pipettes
or needles suitable for microinjection studies. The
P-30 is ideal for student laboratories and other
situations which call for an economical, reliable
pipette pulling device.
The
P-30 is available with either platinum/iridium or
nichrome filament. Platinum is more efficient at
heating and cooling but is more prone to damage. While
nichrome is suitable for many applications, platinum
is recommended for large diameter, thick wall and
aluminosilicate glass and applications requiring
shorter taper lengths.
