Abstract

Biopsy pipettes come in multiple versions, and precision, choice and control are essential. Pipettes are specially designed and polished to minimize damage and protect cell membranes during PGT procedures. Characteristics of some pipettes are • Internal diameter range: from 15 μm to 35 μm • 15 μm for polar body biopsy • 25 μm for trophectoderm biopsy • 30 to 35 μm for blastomere biopsy The pipettes should be manufactured with quality assured materials that are MEA and endotoxin (LAL) tested. All stages of production should be controlled, from the raw materials to the final product. Every single pipette should be checked for dimensions to minimise LOT-to-LOT variation. Some pipettes are made of borosilicate glass that helps prevent the risk of oil clogging the inner surface. All pipettes should have heat polished bases to ensure longevity of seals in your pipette holder. Choosing the exact micropipette tool best suited to your needs ensures a successful outcome.
