Featuring proprietarily designed, multi-layered series of membranes placed within an ultrasonically welded device which creates a check-valve effect when wet, this advanced liquid barrier technology delivers superior protection against serological pipette cross-contamination and device failure. HydroBlokr stops, blocks and locks upon wetting to help reduce incidents of cross contamination via re-introduction of fluids from one aspiration to the next in serological pipette devices. The 0.8µm hydrophobic membrane configuration provides high-flow performance while maintaining exceptional barrier integrity for laboratory liquid handling applications.
Key Multi-Layer Membrane Characteristics
- Multi-layer barrier which demonstrates higher retention than standard single layer devices for enhanced contamination protection
- Immediately blocking flow in either direction upon wetting prevents sample backflow and device infiltration
- Functional membrane immediately reacts in presence of aqueous solution by stopping and blocking further passage
- No further aspiration is possible, and the blockage cannot be "blown out" ensuring complete flow termination
- High-flow, less restrictive path for vacuum and positive pressure to pass extending battery and motor life
Key Construction Characteristics
- Male slip connections on both ends accommodate standard serological pipette and liquid handling controller interfaces
- Creates less back pressure which helps to extend battery life and reduces wear and tear in motorized units
- Inserts in the device similarly to that of standard filters, generally in less than 1 minute for rapid replacement
- Function is no different from a standard hydrophobic filter until it becomes wetted maintaining normal operation
- Compatible with most serological pipette and liquid handling controllers; metered bulb, motorized, premium or budget, imported or domestic
LE-HYBK3-10 devices achieve immediate visual indication when replacement is necessary through plainly evident halted operation, maximizing your laboratory efficiency by eliminating guesswork in filter maintenance. Proprietary technology significantly reduces the harmful effect of overdraw and accumulated wetting due to repeated aspiration, protecting valuable samples and expensive pipette controllers from contamination damage. This nonsterile configuration delivers cost-effective protection for routine laboratory applications requiring reliable liquid barrier performance without compromising operational workflow.
