HydroBlokr Serological Pipette Protection Device, 0.8µm, Female Luer/Male Slip, 25/pk SKU: LE-HYBK1-25

Featuring multi-layered membrane technology within an ultrasonically welded device creating a check-valve effect when wet, this innovative protection system delivers unmatched contamination control for serological pipette applications. Advanced barrier technology reduces serological pipette sample cross contamination and device failure by stopping, blocking and locking upon wetting to prevent fluid re-introduction between aspirations. Extraordinarily high flow rates compared to other hydrophobic barrier filters create a high-flow, less restrictive path for vacuum and positive pressure, extending equipment battery life and reducing motor wear.

Key Multi-Layer Membrane Characteristics

• Functional membrane immediately reacts in presence of aqueous solution by stopping and blocking further passage
• Once wetted, halts operation and locks out further usage until replaced, unlike traditional hydrophobic filters
• Multi-layer barrier demonstrates higher retention than standard single layer devices for enhanced protection
• 0.8µm pore size provides high-flow characteristics while maintaining effective particle retention
• Hydrophobic surface chemistry prevents aqueous solution passage during normal operation

Key Construction Characteristics

• Creates less back pressure helping to extend battery life and reduce wear in motorized units
• Blockage cannot be "blown out" once wetted, ensuring permanent protection activation
• Compatible with most serological pipette and liquid handling controllers including metered bulb, motorized, premium or budget models
• Inserts similarly to standard filters, generally in less than 1 minute for easy replacement
• Female Luer to Male Slip connection accommodates standard pipette controller configurations

LE-HYBK1-25 protection devices achieve plainly obvious indication when filter has become wet and replacement is necessary, eliminating guesswork during critical procedures. Indication of need-to-replace is plainly evident by halted operation, preventing continued use of compromised filters that could compromise sample integrity. Outstanding compatibility with metered bulb, motorized, premium and budget pipette controllers maximizes your laboratory flexibility while providing superior protection against cross-contamination and equipment damage during serological pipetting applications requiring the highest levels of sample protection and operational reliability.
