Available from INTEGRA Biosciences AG the new VIAFLO Voyager range of handheld 8- and 12-channel electronic pipettors have been designed to increase the productivity of liquid sample transfers at a time for a fraction of the cost of an automated sample handling system.

Based upon a proprietary motorised adjustable spacing design - Voyager pipettors eliminate cross contamination and ensure consistent, accurate delivery of liquids to target vessels. Voyager electronic pipettors are the perfect liquid handling tool for applications including sample reformatting, PCR Reaction set-up, ELISA sample transfers and Taqman Assay set-up.

Voyager 8-channel pipettors serve as an efficient tool for transferring fluids out of tubes in racks that are spaced more than 9.0mm apart into 96 well format plates. Up until now this task has been limited to single channel pipetting. Now (8) transfers can be done simultaneously and Voyager makes it easy requiring only one hand to do all the work. Four 8-channel Voyager models are available in volumes ranging from 0.5uL up to 1250uL.

Voyager 12-channel pipettors serve as an efficient tool for simultaneously transferring 12 fluids out of tubes or plates that are in racks spaced more than 4.50mm apart into 96 well format plates. Two 12-channel models are available a 0.5uL-12.5uL and a 5.0uL-125uL.

Voyager pipettors may accommodate 2 or 3 user defined centre-to-centre tip spacings that can be activated anytime during a pipetting application. Simply press a button to move the tips to the needed tip spacing. VIAFLO Voyager pipettors work exclusively with VIAFLO GripTips which provide a perfect seal every time and won't fall off during use.
