SiliGuard™ is a silicone-based coating that can be applied to all polypropylene products including pipette tips. It reduces non-specific binding and is great for sticky compounds.

Some comments from current SiliGuard™ users:

“As an LC/MS lab we can work with smaller volumes of samples such as 30uL, and we need to minimize the amount of analyte or biomarker that remains in the tip. SiliGuard helps us do that.”

“For us, any non-polar species has less mass loss and greater accuracy using the SiliGuard™ coated tips and plates. This is important with lipids and other species that are strong binders to plastics. We have lower detection limits and can more accurately transfer using small volumes.”

Getting your pipette tips coated with SiliGuard™ is easy:
