The ConductScience Reagent Reservoirs are sterile 25mL containers designed for multichannel pipetting applications. The V-bottom geometry minimizes dead volume, ensuring maximum reagent utilization and consistent dispensing across all channels. These single-use reservoirs eliminate cross-contamination risks between samples and maintain sterility throughout multi-well plate filling procedures.
Manufactured to support high-throughput liquid handling workflows, these reservoirs accommodate standard multichannel pipettes and automated liquid handling systems. The sterile packaging ensures immediate use in cell culture and molecular biology applications without additional sterilization steps.
How It Works
Reagent reservoirs function as intermediate containers that enable multichannel pipettes to aspirate identical volumes from a single source into multiple wells simultaneously. The V-bottom geometry concentrates remaining liquid at the reservoir's lowest point, allowing complete aspiration even when volumes approach the minimum working level.
The sterile construction maintains aseptic conditions during liquid handling operations. Each reservoir provides sufficient volume for multiple plate fills while preventing reagent waste through optimized dead volume characteristics.

| Feature | This Product | Typical Alternative | Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capacity Volume | 25mL working volume | Entry-level models often offer 10-15mL capacity | Sufficient volume for multiple 96-well plate fills reduces reagent preparation frequency |
| Bottom Geometry | V-bottom design | Flat-bottom designs common in basic reservoirs | Minimizes dead volume for maximum reagent utilization and cost efficiency |
| Sterility Assurance | Pre-sterilized packaging | Many alternatives require user sterilization | Eliminates pre-use preparation steps and maintains validated sterility |
| Material Construction | Clear polystyrene | Varies by model | Provides visual monitoring of reagent levels during multichannel operations |
These sterile reagent reservoirs offer optimized capacity and geometry for efficient multichannel pipetting workflows. The V-bottom design and pre-sterilized packaging provide practical advantages for high-throughput laboratory applications.
Practical Tips
Pre-wet pipette tips by aspirating and dispensing reagent once before beginning plate filling.
Why: Ensures consistent volume delivery across all channels and prevents air bubbles.
Avoid tilting reservoirs during use to maintain equal liquid access for all pipette channels.
Why: Prevents uneven aspiration and volume inconsistencies between wells.
Monitor reagent temperature equilibration before use, especially for temperature-sensitive compounds.
Why: Temperature differences can affect viscosity and pipetting accuracy.
Handle reservoirs by the outer edges to avoid contaminating the interior surfaces.
Why: Maintains sterility and prevents introduction of contaminants into reagent.
Use reservoirs immediately after opening sterile packaging.
Why: Minimizes exposure time and potential contamination from ambient environment.
If liquid level becomes too low for consistent aspiration, transfer remaining reagent to a smaller reservoir.
Why: Maintains proper liquid depth for all pipette channels to function effectively.

Compliance
What sterilization method is used for these reservoirs?
Consult product datasheet for specific sterilization validation. Standard industry practice uses gamma irradiation for polystyrene labware.
Can these reservoirs be autoclaved for reuse?
No, these are single-use disposable reservoirs designed to prevent cross-contamination. Polystyrene material is not compatible with autoclave temperatures.
What is the minimum working volume for complete aspiration?
The V-bottom design minimizes dead volume, but specific minimum working volume should be confirmed through testing with your multichannel pipette model.
Are these reservoirs compatible with automated liquid handlers?
Yes, standard dimensions accommodate most multichannel pipettes and automated systems. Verify reservoir holder compatibility with specific instrument models.
What chemicals are compatible with polystyrene construction?
Polystyrene is compatible with aqueous solutions, alcohols, and most biological reagents. Avoid organic solvents like acetone, chloroform, and DMF.
How long can reagents be stored in these reservoirs?
Storage time depends on specific reagent stability. These are designed for immediate use rather than long-term storage applications.
