SAS-SETMAir Syringe

For air-assisted micro-injection and micro-aspiration

The SAS-SE™ Special Edition smooth operating syringe provides sensitive control, and when required, can generate high pressure or suction.

The screw-actuated syringe is a small, complete unit, incorporating a heavy circular base.

Its convenient dimensions enable it to be positioned next to the control lever of a micromanipulator to facilitate single-handed operation of both instruments.

The syringe is connected by hard polythene tubing to a micropipette holder, which is fitted to a micromanipulator or similar instrument. Suction/injection is obtained by turning the top part of the syringe.

The equilibration button on the syringe provides a solution to the problem of capillary action when working with small micropipettes and when liquids such as medium are involved. A conveniently situated release button is provided on top of the screw control to achieve equilibration.
