1. Type of tips that need to be purchased. As a highly automated laboratory equipment, the OT-2 magnetic bead protein purification workstation usually requires the use of compatible tips to complete various pipetting operations. Depending on experimental needs, users may need to purchase the following types of tips: 1. Single-channel tip: suitable for scenarios where precise control of the pipetting volume of a single sample is required. 2. Multi-channel tips (such as eight channels): suitable for scenarios where multiple samples need to be processed at the same time, which can improve experimental efficiency and accuracy.

2. Tip specifications The specifications of the tip are usually determined based on the pipetting volume, for example: 1. P20: suitable for pipetting needs of 1~20 μL. 2. P300: Suitable for pipetting requirements of 20~300μL. 3. P1000: Suitable for pipetting needs of 100~1000μL.

3. Suction tip price The price of suction tips varies depending on the supplier, purchase quantity, purchase time, and whether other services (such as customization, transportation, etc.) are included. The following is the general price range provided based on market conditions: 1. Price of a single suction tip: For small-volume purchases (such as less than 10), the price of a single suction tip may range from a few dollars to more than ten dollars. For large-volume purchases (such as more than 100 pieces), the price of a single tip may be reduced, but the specific price still needs to be negotiated with the supplier. 2. Bulk purchase price: When purchasing in bulk, the price will usually be discounted based on the purchase quantity. It is recommended to communicate with suppliers to obtain better prices for bulk purchases.

IV. Purchasing Suggestions 1. Choose regular suppliers: It is recommended to purchase tips from our Opentrons official channels or authorized suppliers to ensure product quality and compatibility. 2. Consider the purchase quantity: Reasonably arrange the purchase quantity according to the experimental needs to avoid waste or shortage. You can consider the number of samples and the frequency of pipetting operations. If the experiment requires processing a large number of samples, you may need to purchase more pipette tips to ensure the smooth progress of the experiment; if pipetting operations are frequent, more pipette tips may also be needed. Replace worn or contaminated tips. It is also necessary to prepare spare suction tips to prevent emergencies during the experiment from causing insufficient suction tips and affecting the experimental operation. 3. Follow promotions: You can follow our Opentrons official website or social media platform to get the latest promotions and product information, so as to enjoy better prices.

The types of tips that need to be purchased for the OT-2 magnetic bead protein purification workstation include single-channel and multi-channel tips. The specifications are determined based on the pipetting volume, and the price varies depending on many factors. It is recommended to purchase from regular suppliers and reasonably arrange the purchase quantity according to experimental needs and budget.
