Air Displacement Semi-Disposable Pipette for Covid Test Kits
With the pandemic-provoked state of emergency lifted in many countries across the world, it's crucial to acknowledge that COVID-19 remains a global threat. The pandemic is far from over as new variants and localized outbreaks continue to pose risks to public health worldwide. In this ongoing battle against the virus, testing is still proving to be an essential weapon, enabling early virus detection and contact tracing.
With the development of rapid diagnostic technologies, such as portable test kits, testing for COVID-19 has expanded beyond the confines of laboratory settings. It can now be conveniently administered in a variety of locations, including doctor's offices, hospitals, workplaces, homes, and drive-in testing sites. This decentralization of testing facilitates broad coverage and swift diagnosis, ensuring that individuals can access testing and receive results rapidly, thus contributing to the overall management of the pandemic.
The MiniPet®, one of TriContinent’s OEM micropipettes, is instrumental for diagnostic kits at point-of-care locations, ensuring wide testing coverage while accommodating a range of volume requirements. It is an affordable product, suitable for both single pipetting and multiple pipetting tasks thanks to disposable tips.
