July 2025 - VITARIS, as GILSON 's distribution partner in Switzerland, is pleased to announce the launch of the new PIPETMAN® M96. The motorized 96-channel high-throughput pipette has been developed to enable semi-automated pipetting directly at the lab bench - easy, fast and ergonomic.
PIPETMAN® M96 is a practical and intuitive electronic air displacement pipette for high-throughput pipetting on 96- and 384-well microtiter plates. PIPETMAN® M96 is available in four different models, which together cover a volume range from 2 μL to 200 μL. With the PIPETMAN® M96 GILSON aims to support laboratories in gradually automating their processes with a flexible and user-friendly solution. The new pipette for high sample throughput is aimed at laboratories that want to increase their throughput without having to invest in complex, fully automated systems.
Discover an efficient way of pipetting
If you're spending hours manually filling 96-well plates, it's time to rethink your pipetting habits. The PIPETMAN® M96 has been specifically designed to significantly increase your productivity in the lab in an intuitive and ergonomic way. With its sophisticated technology and user-friendly operation, it sets new standards in pipetting and brings real progress to your daily laboratory routine.
Optimized for demanding applications
For over 50 years GILSON has been helping laboratories to transform manual processes into efficient automation solutions. The PIPETMAN® M96 is a versatile entry point - whether for PCR, qPCR, ELISA or screening projects. It can be easily integrated into existing structures and at the same time offers potential for growing requirements. The system is particularly suitable for facilities in biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, diagnostics and academic research. Areas of application include the precise replication and transfer of plates in molecular biology procedures, the reliable dispensing of media in cell cultures or genomic analyses and the uniform distribution of solutions in immunological tests
Why choose PIPETMAN® M96 from GILSON?
The device enables touchscreen-guided pipetting directly via a large front display, which guides the user step by step through the process and is easy to operate even when wearing laboratory gloves. Several integrated pipetting modes such as serial dilution, plate-to-plate transfer and repeat dispensing allow flexible applications without the need for additional equipment. The ergonomic design with adjustable finger rests, a one-handed lifting head and low physical strain ensures a high level of comfort, especially during long laboratory sessions. Compatibility with SBS-standardized labware and PIPETMAN® DIAMOND tips eliminates the need for proprietary cartridges, which not only saves costs but also ensures future flexibility. Overall, the system enables time-saving and efficient work with high reproducibility, as consistent results can be achieved independently of the user. The intuitive operation and well thought-out design make it an ideal solution for modern laboratory requirements.
