8-Tip Magnetic Extraction Tip Comb Strip

The Puretest 8-tip magnetic extraction tip comb is a single-row disposable sleeve strip for flexible magnetic-bead DNA, RNA and protein purification. It lets laboratories process one row of eight wells at a time while protecting the magnetic rods from direct reagent contact.

  • Eight aligned sleeves: Process one 8-well row per comb for flexible 1–8 sample batches in a validated program.
  • High-purity polypropylene: Provides chemical resistance and low nonspecific biomolecule binding.
  • Magnetic-rod protection: Keeps permanent rods separated from sample and extraction chemistry.
  • Efficient bead movement: Thin, consistent sleeves support collection, transfer, washing and release.
  • Compatible deep-well workflow: Designed for use with a matching 96-well square deep-well plate after validation.

PRODUCT DETAILS

8-Tip Magnetic Extraction Tip Comb Strip for Automated Magnetic-Bead Processing

The Puretest 8-tip magnetic extraction tip comb is a single-row disposable sleeve strip for flexible magnetic-bead DNA, RNA and protein purification. It lets laboratories process one row of eight wells at a time while protecting the magnetic rods from direct reagent contact.

Eight parallel sleeves are molded as one strip with a shared upper support. Each sleeve surrounds one magnetic rod while the lower closed end enters the corresponding process well. The strip format is practical for partial-row throughput and for systems designed around removable 8-tip combs.

Product Highlights

  • Eight aligned sleeves: Process one 8-well row per comb for flexible 1–8 sample batches in a validated program.
  • High-purity polypropylene: Provides chemical resistance and low nonspecific biomolecule binding.
  • Magnetic-rod protection: Keeps permanent rods separated from sample and extraction chemistry.
  • Efficient bead movement: Thin, consistent sleeves support collection, transfer, washing and release.
  • Compatible deep-well workflow: Designed for use with a matching 96-well square deep-well plate after validation.
  • Single-use format: Helps control cross-contamination between runs.
  • Flexible supply: Sterile and non-sterile configurations, samples and OEM packaging can be discussed.
  • Automation validation support: Current drawings and evaluation samples are available for instrument matching.

Tip Comb Structure and Functional Design

Eight parallel sleeves are molded as one strip with a shared upper support. Each sleeve surrounds one magnetic rod while the lower closed end enters the corresponding process well. The strip format is practical for partial-row throughput and for systems designed around removable 8-tip combs.

The disposable sleeves isolate the permanent magnetic rods from samples and reagents. During a validated program, vertical movement supports bead collection, transfer, washing and release without moving the entire liquid phase between process positions.

Application Guide

Application Why This Format Is Suitable
Low- to medium-throughput extraction Processes a single row without committing to a full 96-tip frame.
DNA and RNA purification Supports magnetic-bead binding, washing and release steps.
Protein and immunoprecipitation workflows Moves magnetic particles between compatible reagent positions.
Assay development Useful for instrument and chemistry optimization with smaller sample batches.
Clinical-research laboratory preparation Supports validated sample-processing workflows when the selected cleanliness status is appropriate.

Workflow and Equipment Compatibility

The 8-tip strip is intended for compatible magnetic-rod extraction systems that accept an eight-sleeve row and a matching deep-well plate. KingFisher®-type, Tianlong-type and other instrument names should be treated as geometry references only; confirm the exact magnetic head, retaining feature and process plate.

  • Match the comb to the magnetic-head type and the exact plate geometry.
  • Confirm sleeve-to-rod clearance, vertical travel, well-center alignment and deck height.
  • Validate mixing speed, stroke, bead-release efficiency and residual carryover with the intended chemistry.
  • Use the tip comb once unless the validated protocol and quoted configuration explicitly state otherwise.
  • Do not use a damaged, warped or contaminated comb.

Material, Cleanliness and Quality Documentation

Puretest laboratory consumables are molded from high-purity polypropylene selected for chemical resistance, low biomolecule binding and dependable dimensional consistency. Available cleanliness, sterile and packaging configurations must be matched to the quoted catalog number.

If your workflow requires a Certificate of Analysis, Certificate of Conformance, irradiation record, DNase/RNase status, pyrogen limit, human-DNA limit, dimensional report or batch traceability, state the requirement before ordering. Puretest will confirm which documents apply to the selected configuration rather than treating every supply option as identical.

Handling and Use

  1. Inspect the packaging and comb for damage before loading.
  2. Load the comb in the orientation specified by the instrument and confirm full mechanical engagement.
  3. Use a compatible process plate and sufficient headspace for programmed mixing.
  4. Run a low-risk validation protocol before processing valuable samples.
  5. Dispose of the used comb according to the laboratory’s biological and chemical-waste procedures.

Ordering Information, Packaging and OEM Support

Puretest supports evaluation samples, current technical drawings, bulk and individually protected packaging, sterile and non-sterile options, customer catalog numbers, private labels, barcodes and distributor carton programs. MOQ, inner-pack quantity, case quantity, lead time, carton dimensions and shipping method are confirmed with the final specification.

Choose the Right Magnetic Extraction Tip Comb

Format Structure Best-Fit Workflow
8-tip strip One row of 8 disposable sleeves Flexible row-by-row magnetic-bead processing
96-tip plate format 8 × 12 array of 96 disposable sleeves Full-plate automated extraction and purification

Tip-comb compatibility depends on the magnetic head, plate geometry, sleeve depth and instrument program. Request the current drawing and validate a physical sample before routine use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this an 8-well plate?

No. It is a disposable strip of eight closed sleeves that covers one row of magnetic rods. It is used together with a compatible process plate.

Can I use it with any 96-well deep-well plate?

No. Well pitch, bottom geometry, sleeve depth and magnetic-head travel must match. Request the current drawings and samples.

Is it sterile?

Sterile and non-sterile supply configurations can be discussed. Confirm the exact status and supporting documents on the quotation.

Can it be reused?

The normal configuration is single use to reduce contamination and performance risk.

What information should I provide for compatibility review?

Send the instrument model, magnetic-head format, current comb or plate reference, photos if available and required process volume.
