HEKA’s new optimized pipette holder, made of extremely low-noise polycarbonate, offers
two major improvements that virtually eliminate pipette movement and air leakage by elongation of the
holderís cap and addition of a third O-ring. The longer cap allows for the insertion of a small
polycarbonate cylinder, keeping the first O-ring firmly in place, even after removal
of the cap for cleaning purposes. The second O-ring is nestled at the other end of the short cylinder
featuring a precision mill cut that holds it in place. This new design provides the highest pipette
stability, eliminates air leaks, and extends the life time of O-rings. Most importantly, this new holder
will increase the rate of successful recordings and increase productivity.
