113 Liquid Handling
The Next Generation in Pipetting
The Socorex ® complete line of liquid handling products offers your lab a single source for superior quality pipettes, tips and accessories. Socorex pipettes which are manufactured in Switzerland are available exclusively by WHEATON in the United States. Socorex manual pipettes meet and exceed users’ needs for precision, accuracy and affordability. The Acura 825 and 835 are classic manual pipettes for all applications; the Acura 826 XS is the newest, light weight pipette designed intentionally to be shorter in length to facilitate working in small microtubes. In addition, all Acura manual pipettes are designed with optimal ergonomics to help prevent repetitive stress injuries. Specifically, the Acura 826 XS features an ultra-soft plunger which greatly reduces thumb and hand fatigue from long hours of pipetting.
