World Precision Instruments has Developed An Innovative Approach To Sub Microliter Injection for Laboratory Research
What was once a laborious process to fill micro syringes wtih samples for injection has now become faster and easier. WPI's new NanoFil micro syringe injection system has interchangable tips to aid in the process. Filling a syringe now takes just a fraction of the time it once took. After filling, exchange the tip and begin injections with needles as small as 36 gauge or 110 microns.
(PRWEB) August 19, 2005 -- Responding to the needs of researchers, WPI has
developed a unique syringe that will change the way sub microliter injections
are performed.
Traditional sub microliter injection required the use of
oil as a displacement transfer. This makes the process messy and risks
contamination of the injected sample. NanoFil’s low volume, flexible tubing
eliminates the need for oil. Injection is now simpler, and less messy, and there
is no possibility of oil contamination in critical applications such as
ophthalmology research, intrauterine mouse embryo injections, and brain
injections.
On a conventional replacing the tip in middle of the
experiment is not practical. With the NanoFil, different gauge tips can be
exchanged on the syringe by a simple twist of the brass lock, gently pulling out
the tip, and replacing with the desired new tip.
The replaceable needles
used with the NanoFil are available with either blunt or beveled tips. The blunt
tip is used for injection into soft tissue and when a uniform solution
distribution is needed. The beveled style is used for applications that involve
the penetration of tough tissue. All of WPI’s beveled tips have a unique 25
degree tri-surface bevel that is optimized for microinjection.
The 36
gauge tip is the smallest tip that is commercially available. The tip is so
small that it can be inserted into the opening of the 33 gauge needle
tip.
