What Are Reagent Reservoirs?
Reagent reservoirs are containers used to hold liquid reagents during pipetting procedures. They are commonly used with single-channel and multi-channel pipettes to dispense consistent volumes across multiple samples efficiently.
Disposable reagent reservoirs help reduce the risk of cross-contamination while improving workflow efficiency. Designed for accuracy and convenience, they are widely used in life science, clinical, and research laboratories.
Types of Reagent Reservoirs
Disposable Reagent Reservoirs
Designed for single-use applications, disposable reagent reservoirs help maintain sample integrity and reduce contamination risks. They are ideal for high-throughput and routine laboratory workflows.
Graduated Reagent Reservoirs
Graduated reagent reservoirs feature clear, easy-to-read volume markings that allow quick reference and accurate reagent handling during pipetting procedures.
Sterile and Non-Sterile Options
Non-sterile reservoirs are suitable for general laboratory use, while sterile variants are irradiated to achieve a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10⁻⁶, making them ideal for sensitive and contamination-critical applications.
Multiple Volume Options
Available in common volumes such as 25 mL and 50 mL, reagent reservoirs support a variety of experimental requirements and reagent quantities.
