Eppendorf Sample Handling: Simply reliable.

Eppendorf has been at the forefront of sample handling since 1950 when we introduced our first photometer. Our BioPhotometer plus still is a laboratory favorite — the result of a continuous innovation process to optimize product convenience.

Of course sample handling is more than photometry: centrifugation, heating, freezing and mixing are critical steps. Our products cover these applications and more. Eppendorf invented the micro reaction ("Eppi") tube in 1962. Since then we have applied our experience in plastics technology to develop all types of premium consumables - in various purity options.

The Eppendorf MixMate is an example of our art of engineering. Introduced in 2006 it allowed for the first time efficient mixing of 384-well plates. The Mastercycler pro is another example. This fast, reliable PCR instrument solves frequent problems such as inhomogeneous results and evaporation.
