FireGene Boxed Pipette Tips — Sterile, Graduated, Universal Fit
The tip is the last thing between your pipette and your sample. It's also the thing most labs buy on price alone — until a contamination event or a failed assay traces back to a batch of tips that weren't actually nuclease-free, or a non-standard geometry that introduced inconsistent volumes.
FireGene boxed pipette tips are manufactured to polypropylene medical-grade standards: sterile, DNase-free, RNase-free, and pyrogen-free at the point of manufacture. The quadrilateral rack frame keeps tips aligned and stable during both storage and pipetting — no tip dislodgement, no rack flex, no need to re-sort before use.
Volume options and catalog numbers
| Volume | Catalog No. | Graduation | Pack |

Key features
- Polypropylene (PP) — chemically inert, low protein-binding, compatible with aqueous and organic solvents
- Sterile — individually processed, each box sealed for cleanroom and sensitive assay use
- DNase-free, RNase-free — safe for RNA work, PCR setup, and nucleic acid handling
- Pyrogen-free — suitable for endotoxin-sensitive applications and aseptic technique requirements
- Graduated markings — clear, permanently molded graduation lines for visual volume confirmation during pipetting
- Universal fit — compatible with major pipette brands including Eppendorf, Gilson, Thermo, Rainin, and equivalent models
- Quadrilateral frame box — rigid four-sided rack prevents tip displacement during use
Applications
- PCR and qPCR setup
- RNA extraction and RT workflows
- Cell culture media preparation
- Endotoxin-sensitive liquid handling
- General molecular biology and biochemistry pipetting
- High-throughput screening and plate-based assays

Product FAQ
Q: Are these tips certified DNase-free and RNase-free?
A: Yes. All FireGene boxed tips are manufactured sterile and tested DNase-free, RNase-free, and pyrogen-free. Each lot is processed under conditions that eliminate nuclease contamination — making them suitable for RNA extraction, RT-PCR setup, and other nuclease-sensitive workflows.
Q: Which pipette brands are these tips compatible with?
A: FireGene tips use a universal taper geometry compatible with major pipette brands including Eppendorf, Gilson, Thermo Scientific, Rainin, and equivalent models. If you are using a less common brand and want to confirm fit, contact us and we can advise based on your pipette model.
Q: What does the quadrilateral frame mean in practice?
A: The box uses a rigid four-sided (quadrilateral) outer frame rather than a standard flexible rack. This keeps the tip array flat and prevents warping or tip displacement when the box is handled, stored on its side, or used in a cold room environment where standard racks sometimes deform.
Q: Can I order bulk quantities?
A: Yes. Bulk pricing is available for labs with regular consumption. Contact service@firegene.com with your required volume and catalog numbers for a quote.
