Eppendorf Multipette Xstream: precision and versatility for liquid dispensing
The Eppendorf Multipette Xstream is designed to meet the needs of laboratories that require speed, precision and repeatability in their liquid handling. This system, combined with Combitips plus tips, operates on the positive displacement principle, ensuring reliable performance even with viscous or volatile liquids. It offers a volume range from 1 µL to 50 mL, covering a wide range of applications. Thanks to its motorised electronic system, it significantly reduces user fatigue and improves efficiency during long dispensing runs. The six integrated operating modes allow the instrument to be adapted to various protocols: manual step-by-step dispensing, automatic dispensing at adjustable intervals, sequential dispensing for serial dilutions, repeated aspiration, conventional pipetting or precise titration.
Ergonomics and ease of use
The Multipette Xstream incorporates Eppendorf's PhysioCare concept, ensuring a comfortable grip and minimal effort during use. Its backlit display clearly shows essential parameters such as volume, number of steps, speed and battery status. The intuitively positioned controls allow quick adjustment of parameters, even during operation. Automatic recognition of the size of the inserted Combitip plus tip simplifies setup and ensures optimum precision. The integrated lithium-ion battery offers extended operating time and can be recharged via the power supply unit or optional charging stations.
Reliability, safety and precision
The robust design of the Multipette Xstream, combined with materials that are resistant to common chemicals, makes it a durable and reliable instrument. Integrated features reduce the risk of cross-contamination, particularly through the single-use of Combitips plus. The aspiration and dispensing speeds are adjustable to suit the characteristics of the liquid being handled, limiting splashing and ensuring reproducible results.
A key lock system prevents accidental changes to settings. Accuracy complies with ISO 8655, and the device stores the last settings used for each tip size. This instrument is a major asset for biology, chemistry, environmental analysis and quality control laboratories, offering a high level of control and reliability in dispensing processes.
