SLM Blastomere Biopsy Pipettes are used to remove blastomeres and trophectoderm cells from embryos for pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD). 

There are five sizes and two series available for selection. The “Z” series is flat tip, while the “X” series is a beveled tip. Both styles are supplied with an ID of 20 µm, 25 µm, 30 µm, 35 µm and 40 µm. Size 20 µm and 25 µm are recommended for trophectoderm (TE) biopsy.

There is no shrinkage at the bending section, so less likely to damage the blastomere in case it is sucked through. 

All tips are fire polished to reduce damage to the cell membrane. 

They are supplied with a tip angle of 0°- 45° and a tip to elbow length, of 0.55 mm.
