CP Select™ Concentrating Pipette

Experience the efficiency of the FluidPrep™ Concentrating Pipette System, engineered to simplify workflows and boost assay sensitivity. This system is highly effective in recovering microorganisms and particles, including bacteria, parasites, molds, fungal spores, whole cells, viruses, and synthetic particles, from sample volumes between 0.5 mL and 5 L.
The one-pass method uses robust filtration followed by instant sample recovery using the patented Wet Foam Elution™ process delivering a highly concentrated sample ideal for detection by culture, PCR, sequencing, and more - with unprecedented speed and efficiency. For applications needing rapid, reliable sample concentration, this system provides a faster, simpler alternative to traditional culture enrichment, centrifugation, and ultracentrifugation methods.

Workflow
The Concentrating Pipette System integrates robust filtration and patented Wet Foam Elution™ process, to efficiently release particles into microliter sample volumes with maximum efficiency, delivering a highly concentrated sample ready for immediate analysis. 
· Collect
Collect your liquid sample in sample container.
· Prep
Capture particles onto a hollow fiber filter (Concentrating Pipette tip). Then with a button press, the particles are eluted from the filter in just seconds.
· Detect
The eluted samples pair with both traditional culture or rapid molecular analysis methods, including PCR and next-generation sequencing.

The CP Select™ when paired with your choice of filtered Pipette Tips and choice of Elution Buffer provides concentration factors beyond competing technologies, exponentially increasing detection of trace microorganisms or other particles in just minutes. Its versatility shines in its ability to process a variety of sample matrices and sample volumes.

Exceptional Concentration Factors:  The combination of high recovery efficiency + large sample volume concentration maximizes concentration factors while simultaneously providing a clean buffer exchange.
· Excellent Recovery Efficiency: High recovery efficiency is achieved using Wet Foam Elution
· Exponential Concentration: Variable starting sample volumes, up to 5L, can be concentrated into a single, nominal volume as low as 0.150 mL.

Fast Concentration
· The large surface area of the filter (98cm²) enables concentration from larger sample volumes than other methods allow.
· Customizable Run Modes: 12 customizable menu parameters for optimizing performance across different matrices. 
· Displaces Traditional Methods: Replaces centrifugation, ultracentrifugation, and culture enrichment with a faster and more efficient process. 

Reliable Results
· Robust System Design: Single-use consumables eliminate risk of contamination between samples. 
· Repeatable Results: Simple button press operation ensures consistent results between users for reliable analysis. 
· User friendly: Standard operating protocols drive reliable consistent results.

Compatible with your Target, Matrix and Downstream Application
· Targets: The high surface area (98 cm²) of the filtered Pipette Tips combined with the option of four pore sizes (0.45µm, 0.2 µm, 0.05 µm and an ultrafilter) for virtually any particle size.
· Matrix: The robust filtration paired with operational menu setting options accommodates concentration from even complex matrices like clinical specimens and turbid samples. 
· Gentle Buffer Exchange: Variety of buffers and the gentle concentration process preserves the integrity of concentrated organisms, and are compatible with downstream applications ranging form standard analytical techniques, viability studies, or culture enrichment.
