ep Dualfilter T.I.P.S.® SealMax
ep Dualfilter T.I.P.S. SealMax Self-Sealing Filter Tips – The combination of the well known unique two-phase filter protection of sample and pipette with an innovative liquid and moisture barrier.
The violet and white filter for the ep Dualfilter T.I.P.S.® SealMax filter tips combine a reliable contamination protection for your pipette from your sample liquid with virtually 100 % protection from aerosols and biomolecules. This Dualfilter closes immediately when it comes into contact with the overpipetted sample without inhibiting valuable material. Additionally drops and splashes are retained by the white layer, the violet layer forms the highly-effective barrier against sample liquid. Further information and certification on specific sample recovery features, PCR inhibition and aerosol protection are available on your local Eppendorf website.
ep Dualfilter T.I.P.S. and ep Dualfilter T.I.P.S. SealMax are manufactured to the highest quality standards from pure, non-recycled materials under cleanroom conditions without the use of interfering slip agents, biocides or plasticizers.
Ideally suited for methods where high sensitivity and reproducibility are essential, both ep Dualfilter T.I.P.S. and ep Dualfilter T.I.P.S. SealMax are especially recommended for applications such as PCR and microbiology where preserving sample integrity and preventing cross contamination are critical.
Production, without compromise!
Having our own production facility means that each one of our epT.I.P.S. is manufactured to the highest quality standards. Through our selection of the best plastic materials and ISO 9001 - certified production processes, our tips maintain ideal wetting properties and boast high transparency and certified purity levels. Every tip is manufactured to match specifically to its respective Eppendorf pipette(s), thus ensuring the maximum precision and reliability you have come to expect and rely on. The Eppendorf pipette and tip system satisfies all of the requirements of EN ISO 8655 standards.

No, provided that you work with Eppendorf single-channel pipettes and your sample is an aqueous solution. In this case, you can recover nearly 100% of your aqueous sample. Simply press down the operating button of your pipette slowly and dispense the liquid. The recovery rate of water has been shown in Application Note 273.
No. The self-sealing mechanism works best with aquaeous solutions, most acids, and bases. We recommend our ep Dualfilter T.I.P.S. LoRetention, when working with solutions containing detergents.
No. Filter tips in general are meant to be used only once as they are used to avoid contaminations. Therefore, we recommend to always use a new filter tip when starting the next pipetting process.
Generally, there are several seconds between the absorption of the sample and its dispensing. The Dualfilter of the ep Dualfilter T.I.P.S. SealMax allows immediate sample recovery when working with aquaeous solutions and a single-channel pipette.
