Boasting a touch-sensitive color screen and preset programs, the MP-500 micropipette puller makes the fabrication of micropipettes reproducible and easier.

Easy and quick softening point test, safe heat mode, and system diagnostic features ensure an ideal pulling condition for a stable pulling of micropipettes. And the other advanced features of the MP-500 micropipette include a unique slot to fix and replace heating filament easily, an integrated humidity-controlled chamber for easy plug-in or removal.

Applications:

Patch-clamp experiment;
Microinjection or microelectrode: Adherent cell, C.Elegans, Drosophila, Zebrafish;
Pronuclear injection and intracellular recording;
In vivo microinjection: ES cell, Nuclear transfer, ICSI, Virus, Xenopus;

Features:

Preheat mode to maintain a constant temperature for a consistent and stable pipette pulling.
Two microelectrodes with symmetrical tips for each pull.
Pulls electrodes with tip diameters down to 0.06μm, cone length between 3~15 mm.
Impedance range from 1 to above 100Ω.
Preset pull protocols are available: only need input the parameters of the capillary glass tube, heating filament, and kinds of glass microelectrodes to be pulled, then a suitable pull program will be provided and can be modified as needed.
Store up to 99 pulling programs.
Safe heat mode to avoid the damage of the filament from high temperature.
Unique slot for easy fixing and replacing various models of filaments.
Integrated plug-in humidity control chamber to keep the air around the filament and the capillary glass to be dry, ensuring an ideal pulling condition.
