# Biochemical & Research Laboratories

High-throughput, contamination-free sterilization for sensitive molecular tools and plastic consumables.

Chemical-free sterilization for delicate laboratory equipment, pipette tips, and microfluidics, without melting plastics or losing instrument calibration.

## Key features

- Enables safe, certified reuse of pipette tips with aerosol filters (eliminating DNA cross-contamination)
- Zero thermal deformation for heat-labile plastics, microplates, and centrifuge vials
- Preserves micro-fluidic channels in delicate lab-on-a-chip diagnostic devices
- 100% dry and chemical-free, leaving zero toxic residues that could interfere with enzymatic or PCR reactions

## Suitable for

- Molecular biology & genetics labs (DNA/RNA workflows)
- Pharmaceutical quality control & microbiological research
- Clinical diagnostic facilities & testing centers
- Academic and industrial biotechnology institutes

In modern laboratory environments, maintaining a contamination-free workspace is paramount for ensuring reproducible research results and reliable experimental integrity. Conventional sterilization equipment—most notably high-pressure steam autoclaves—poses a severe limitation: excessive heat melts common plastics, warps precision microfluidics, and invalidates calibrated tolerances.

Plasmatico resolves this dilemma with non-thermal plasma (NTP) technology, generating broad-spectrum antimicrobial active species at room temperature.

## Reusable Pipette Tips: Transforming Lab Economics

One of Plasmatico's most transformative capabilities is the effective decontamination of disposable pipette tips fitted with aerosol barrier filters.

* **Massive Cost Savings:** High-throughput laboratories consume thousands of pipette tips daily. Plasmatico allows reliable reuse without DNA/RNA cross-contamination, saving facilities hundreds of thousands of dollars annually.
* **Dramatic Waste Reduction:** Prevents tons of single-use biomedical plastic from entering high-cost incineration streams.
* **Proven Molecular Safety:** Validated in peer-reviewed protocols (*Scientific Reports*), a standard 3-hour cycle in Plasmatico achieves complete elimination of amplifiable nucleic acid residues and bacterial spores.

## Lab-on-a-Chip & Advanced Microfluidics

Microfluidic chips and biosensors rely on precise microscopic geometries that cannot tolerate thermal expansion or aggressive solvents. Plasmatico cleans internal channels and surface sensors through diffuse gas-phase plasma active species, stripping organic contaminants and inverting surface bio-fouling without mechanical friction or liquid turbulence.

## Fast, Effortless Workflow Integration

Plasmatico is a compact, benchtop system designed for direct installation inside your laboratory clean bench or prep room. With standard 230V electrical connection, plug-and-play operation, and intuitive one-touch cycles, your team can maintain continuous sterile readiness with running costs of under 10 cents per cycle.
