Reservoir, PS
Product Code : EL-TT-10318
Lab Glassware Manufacturer supplies the Reservoir, PS from its manufacturing facility in Ambala, Haryana, to research and diagnostic laboratories across India and export buyers in Colombia, Ecuador and Peru and other markets across the Andean region.
Quick answer: This is a white, single-channel liquid reservoir moulded from crystal-grade polystyrene with a sloped bottom, supplied sterile. The sloped base lets a multichannel pipette draw up the last of the liquid efficiently, which is why these reservoirs are used for bulk-loading multichannel pipettes during cell culture and immunoassay work rather than pipetting directly from a stock bottle.
Why a Sloped-Bottom Reservoir for Multichannel Pipetting
When a multichannel pipette repeatedly draws small volumes from a shared source, a flat-bottomed vessel leaves a thin film of liquid unreachable at the corners and edges, wasting reagent and risking inconsistent volumes on the last few draws. The sloped bottom of this reservoir channels liquid toward a single low point, keeping it accessible to the pipette tips for longer and reducing dead volume — a meaningful saving when the reservoir is filled with a costly reagent, antibody dilution or cell culture medium. Being supplied sterile and single-use in crystal-grade polystyrene also avoids the cross-contamination risk of reusing a shared vessel between assay runs, which matters for immunoassay and cell culture protocols where carryover can affect results.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is this reservoir typically used for?
It is used to hold a bulk volume of reagent, media or diluent so a multichannel pipette can draw multiple samples from a single source in one loading step, commonly during cell culture feeding, ELISA/immunoassay reagent distribution and general multichannel liquid handling.
Why does the sloped bottom matter?
The slope channels the remaining liquid to one low point as the reservoir empties, keeping it reachable by the pipette tips and reducing the dead volume left behind compared with a flat-bottomed reservoir.
Is this reservoir reusable or single-use?
It is supplied sterile and is intended for single-channel, single-use application, which avoids cross-contamination between different reagents or assay runs.
Can this be supplied for bulk, tender or export orders?
Yes. It is supplied in bulk to research and diagnostic laboratories in India and is exported to distributor and institutional buyers, including recent enquiries from Andean markets such as Colombia, Ecuador and Peru.
