Gilson Pipetman® Announces Release Of Pipetman M – A New Ergonomic Motorized Pipette From The Ma

April 2, 2010 - PRLog -- Gilson is proud to announce the release of Pipetman® M, a new family of pipettes and the latest evolution of the Gilson Pipetman®, the world’s pipetting standard for over 35 years.  Lightweight and extremely comfortable, Pipetman M is fully motorized and requires virtually zero pipetting force. Pipetman M looks, performs, and feels like the renowned original Pipetman, and offers advanced ergonomic features and enhanced user-friendly functionality. Designed with both experienced and inexperienced users in mind, Pipetman M is extremely intuitive, requires no learning curve to master, and is offered at a price that is less than most users would expect to pay for a motorized pipette.

Boasting four essential pipetting modes, including reverse, mix, repetitive and pipetting, Pipetman M offers the same high reproducibility, accuracy and precision that users expect from Gilson pipette products. “The development of Pipetman M was done with the help of our customers.” says Dr. Robert Gilson, president of Gilson, Inc. “Our goal was to design a highly ergonomic pipette that greatly reduces the pipetting forces needed to aspirate and dispense, that consistently produces trusted results, and that is as easy to use as Pipetman.” Dr. Gilson went on to add “It was also very important to our customers that they not have to change how they pipette. We’re proud to say that Pipetman M is the result of this collaboration.”

Pipetman M bears all the hallmarks of the original Gilson Pipetman: incredible robustness, durability, and longevity coupled with the accuracy, precision and a level of comfort that is unmatched by any pipette on the market today. The motorized piston of Pipetman M virtually eliminates pipetting variability among users and because the speed of the piston is adjustable, users can pipette denser samples with accuracy and confidence. GLP features of Pipetman M include a lockable volume, service alert reminders and color-coded push-button that correspond to matching Gilson tip packaging. Like Pipetman P, Pipetman M is fitted with a universal tip holder that allows for a secure fit of most brands of tips, so there’s no need for a dedicated tip brand. Four models cover the range of 0.5µL to 1000µL.
