Reagent Reservoir

The GISCOM Reagent Reservoir is a durable and autoclavable container designed for holding reagents, buffers, and solutions during multichannel pipetting procedures. Its wide, angled design ensures easy access for 8- and 12-channel pipettes, improving efficiency in microplate-based assays. Essential in high-throughput workflows, it ensures consistent reagent distribution while minimizing waste and contamination.

Key Features

• Autoclavable polypropylene construction for sterile and repeat-use applications
• Wide basin design enables smooth pipette loading for multichannel pipettes
• Stable, anti-tip base minimizes spills and reagent loss
• Smooth, non-reactive surface reduces sample adhesion and ensures maximum recovery
• High chemical resistance suitable for solvents, buffers, detergents, and biological reagents
• Lightweight, stackable, and easy to handle during high-throughput tasks
• Economical and reusable alternative to disposable reservoirs

Handling & Precautions

• Compatible with autoclaving at 121°C; avoid dry heat sterilisation.
• Clean using mild detergents or 70% alcohol; avoid abrasive cleaners
• Do not expose to open flames or temperatures beyond PP’s tolerance
• Ensure the reservoir is placed on a stable, level surface during use
• Rinse thoroughly after corrosive reagents to prolong service life
• Store in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight

 Applications

• Pharmaceutical QC/QA and R&D labs for reagent distribution in microplate assays
• Biotechnology and life science research for ELISA, cell culture, and enzyme assays
• Clinical and diagnostic laboratories for sample preparation and buffer handling
• Chemical, environmental, and food testing labs require consistent reagent handling
• Academic and training institutes for high-throughput teaching workflows
• The reservoir greatly enhances efficiency in any workflow that relies on multichannel pipettes and microtiter plate operations.
