Now available through SLS and a new addition to the PIPETMAN^® range is PIPETMAN^® G which offers the lowest pipetting forces in the market. Unlike the other manual pipettors in the PIPETMAN^® range which utilise a dry-seal piston, Pipetman G incorporates a completely redesigned and lubricated piston system. This has resulted in pipetting forces being reduced by upto 50% vs PIPETMAN^® Neo whilst maintaining Gilson's reputation for robustness.

The introduction of a lubricated piston on a manual pipette is a first for Gilson but the PIPETMAN^® Concept electronic pipettor has always utilised a lubricated piston. The decision to retain the dry-seal system over the rest of the PIPETMAN^® range was driven by a number of factors:

• Concerns over the quality of lubricant available and the risk of contamination of the sample
• End user prioritisation of robustness and performance over comfort and ease of use

However, with improvements in the quality of the lubricants available and the increased use of filter tips which help eliminate any risk of sample contamination, there was an opportunity for Gilson to develop a manual pipette which offered market leading reductions in pipetting forces through the use of a lubricated piston - hence PIPETMAN^® G.
