A device and a method of dealing with a pipette chip
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6043777
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a distal barrier plate (28) that can be part of a pipette tip dispenser and is not in association with pipette tips (20). The distal barrier plate comprises a plurality of channels, wherein each channel has a diameter larger than the widest portion of a pipette tip; a substantially flat top surface; and a substantially flat bottom surface that comprises a plurality of tails around some or all of the channels, wherein: (i) the tails extend in a nearly perpendicular orientation from the flat bottom surface, and (ii) the tails around each channel contact and deflect outward against the proximal portion of a pipette tip when a pipette tip is dispensed and passes by the tails, thereby imparting a frictional force on the pipette tip when it is dispensed.
