Tip Tops are cone-shaped, flexible polyethylene caps designed to fit 13 and 16 mm blood collection tubes, serum separating columns and other 13 and 16 mm vials. Filtered Tip Tops have a built-in membrane to remove fibrin clots and other particulates for trouble-free analysis with auto analyzers. A small opening at the top that allows you to dispense straight from the tube into sample cups. Specimens and reagents remain covered at all times, reducing the risk of accidental spills and exposure to infectious agents. One Tip Top can be used to dispense the same fluid again and again, eliminating the need for multiple transfer pipets.

Until now, there was really no alternative to differential slide preparation but two glass slides, a drop of blood from a capillary tube or pipette and a technician's skilled hands.

Helena's new H-Pette offers a new approach to slide preparation that eliminates the hazards of open tubes of blood and cuts consumption of slides and transfer pipettes. In addition to saving dollars on disposables, increased efficiency and safety are key benefits.

Just insert the H-Pette into the stopper of any size blood collection tube, invert tube and transfer the drop of blood to a glass slide. Rotate the tube and use the attached paddle to make your smears just as you would with a slide. The H-Pette remains in place in the stopper and is disposed with the tube as a biohazard. It can also be easily removed if necessary. H-Pettes are also available without blades and are ideal for transferring sample to test cassettes and slides.

The new C-Pette® makes delivering sample into the test cards and cassettes used by point of care analyzers easy and efficient. Since there is no need to open the primary sample tube, risk of biohazard exposure is reduced. C-Pettes® are ideal for use with the Abbott i-STAT® test cartridges.
