Fisherbrand Transfer Pipette 5.8 ml Graduated - 470 Pipets total

Fisherbrand Disposable Graduated Transfer Pipettes – 5.8 mL Total Capacity, 3.4 mL Bulb Draw, 0.25 mL Graduations, Gamma Radiation Sterile, Low-Density Polyethylene (MPN: 13-711-9BM)

The Fisherbrand 13-711-9BM (also cross-referenced under catalog ID 137119BM) is an instrument-grade, single-piece disposable liquid handling device engineered for swift, contamination-free fluid transfers across sterile clinical and diagnostic environments. Molded in a unified structure from premium, ultra-clear low-density polyethylene (LDPE), each pipette eliminates the laboratory hazards associated with traditional glass pipettes and detachable rubber bulbs. Featuring a total volume capacity of 5.8 mL with distinct 0.25 mL graduated benchmarks up to a 3.4 mL bulb-draw section, this flexible transfer tool delivers highly repeatable drop sizes. Chemically inert to biological fluids, blood derivatives, and most laboratory acids, it provides secure, shatterproof fluid handling for modern cleanrooms, hematology suites, and reference diagnostic laboratories.

Technical Performance and Design

• One-Piece Molded LDPE Matrix: Formulated from high-purity, see-through low-density polyethylene. The shatterproof plastic matrix completely mitigates the risks of glass fractures and ambient exposure to infectious biological specimens during high-velocity routine testing workflows.

• Certified Gamma Radiation Sterility: Sterilized via rigorous gamma irradiation to ensure an absolute biological security envelope. Packaged specifically to preserve sterile boundaries, making them outstanding for microbiology inoculation passes and aseptic tissue culture additions.

• Crisp Molded Volumetric Graduations: Features high-contrast, raised 0.25 mL incremental lines molded permanently into the clear plastic column wall. This design offers prompt, mistake-free volume tracking during non-critical liquid aliquoting, reagent addition, or buffer splits.

• Heat-Sealable Storage Architecture: The flexible LDPE shaft can be cold-crimped or heat-sealed utilizing standard laboratory tube sealants. This enables technicians to convert individual pipettes into self-contained, vapor-tight transport vessels for cold refrigeration storage.

Key Benefits and Applications

• Clinical Pathology and Urinalysis: The preferred, cost-effective standard for transferring raw serum, blood plasma samples, urine supernatants, and chemical testing reagents without cross-contamination threats.

• Blood Bank and Hematology Isolation: Simplifies small-volume separation and fluid harvesting steps in cross-matching networks, blood grouping lines, and diagnostic sample preparation bays.

• Airborne Contamination Defense: Because the entirety of the integrated bulb setup is single-use, it removes cross-contamination risks common to multi-use rubber bulbs, safeguarding personnel from aerosol trace exposure.

• Repeatable Uniform Drop Sizes: Calibrated tip structures ensure uniform surface tension drop delivery, making them highly reliable for loading cell counters, sample slots, diagnostic cassettes, and screening slides.
