WPI NanoFil Injection Syringe System

The NanoFil™ Gas-Tight Injection System boasts zero dead volume, an the variability is eliminated with the NanoFil™ design: our interchangable needles advance directly into the syringe barrel, creating a 1:1 connection with the plunger— a truly gas-tight system built for low-volume sample control. WPI's cross-compatible NanoFil™ needles are offered in sizes from 33-36g, blunt or beveled.

Features:

• Smallest dead volume injection syringe
• Biologically compatible injection syringe
• Various needle sizes availablefrom 26g, 33-36 g
• Blunt or beveled needles
• Compatible with WPI's UMP3 microinjection system
• Customer needle shapes available - blunt, beveled

NanoFil's low dead volume eliminates the need for oil backfilling, a messy process which risks contamination of the injected sample. Injection is now simpler, and less messy, and there is no possibility of oil contamination in critical applications such as ophthalmology research (see the Retinal Pigment Epithelial RPE and Intra Ocular IO injection kits).

It can be operated by hand or used with the MMP, DMP or UMP3 pumping systems. The RPE and I/O kit contains SilFlex tubing that has 2.74µl dead volume. The Nanofil with a needle has a dead volume of the needle which can be as low as 1.5nl. It is excellent for low volume injections and syringe filling when back filling is undesirable. A common application is occular injections. Two syringes are available (10µl and 100µl, and the syringes can be adapted to Silflex tubing. Silflex is a plastic-coated glass tubing that is flexible and durable. It has a tiny dimaeter for low volume.
