Filter Tips

General Information

Free of human DNA, certified free of DNase, RNase and PCR inhibitors

High Quality Filter Tips (MPS Technology, Pore Size 4-6 µm)

AHN tips as filter tips adopt the very latest micropore technology (AHN MPS Technology) to ensure that all aerosols and liquids are prevented from entering the pipettor. This technology eliminates the need for additives such as Sodium, found in self-sealing type filters (which also have the disadvantage of trapping samples in the tip once the filter has sealed). AHN Tip filter tips use virgin bonded Poliolefine filters without additives (which would be a potential source of contamination), and their micropore technology (MPS) ensures that the filters will never trap samples in the tip. Should the filter become wet due to inadvertent over-pipetting, it will act as a barrier to the passage of liquid, yet the sample in the tip may still be dispensed in the normal way, and can be re-used without fear of contamination. All AHN filter tips are metal free and ideal and universal for various applications. Available in Top-Line and ULR quality.

Safety Filter Barrier Tips

Safety filter barrier tips prevent cross-contamination of sample fluids or sample vapors from contacting the pipettor’s shaft. If you are handling vaporous, radioactive, biohazardous or corrosive samples, you need AHN safety barrier tips. The AHN PCR-Filter tips (0.1-10 µl) are specially engineered for PCR multiplication and techniques and give the researcher the confidence that the full amount of enzymes or DNA will be captured for testing purposes. Ordinary filter tips do not offer this feature. You will get more reliable results – the ultimate goal for all research customer. AHN filter tips are sterilized by radiation (Beta irradiated) and available in an innovative hinged rack-system or in bags as sterile or non-sterile versions. All filter tips are naturally certified RNase, DNase and pyrogene safe and free of PCR-inhibitors.

Little Things Makes Big Differences

The angel on AHN Biotechnologie beveled filter tips reduces the surface of the tip orifice with the receiving vessel. This angel combined with an ultra-thin orifice reduces the effect of liquid samples creeping up the side of the tip (capillary effect). By reducing this capillary effect, Top-Line tips and filter tips dispense more accurate volumes. AHN has developed a new process (new polymer technology) to manufacture various types of tips and aerosol barrier filter tips. These products are made without the use of inconsistent processes such as adding silicone. The high quality of our products give the customer unparalleled confidence knowing that AHN use 100 % pure virgin Polypropylene, and high quality control standards.

AHN Biotechnologie high precision filter tips packaging configurations

AHN filter tips are packed loose in safety welded polyethylene bags. They can be used for nonsterile or sterile procedures or for refilling any rack system. AHN Biotechnology AHN filter tips are also available in refillable racks which are inserted in a hinged box. These 2 parts are combined to the AHN rackbox system. Filter tips in hinged rackboxes are fully autoclavable and offer excellent value for money. They are available in sterile or non-sterile versions.
