Tips
- No validated tip alternatives are available at this time for the Hamilton tips outlined in the User Guides.
We are aware that there is a shortage of both Hamilton tips and Eppendorf plates due to supply chain issues at this time. We recommend setting up consumable ordering before experimental planning. 10x is in the process of validating additional alternatives and will update this page when these are available.
