EZ-Range™ Pipettors and Tips
The EZ-Range is an innovative range of options for denudation and handling and includes:
- EZ-Tip™ – Premium, plastic-tip pipette for denudation and handling. Read more here
- EZ-Grip™ – Adjustable pipettor with easy and quick tip assembly
- EZ-Squeeze™ Handle – Time-saving bulb and pipette denudation and handling system
- EZ-Strip™ – A complete sterile single-use unit designed for exacting laboratory sterility standards
- EZ-Stand™ – Helping keep your tools in place
The EZ-Range of denudation and handling devices is mouse embryo assay (MEA) and limulus amoebocyte lysate (LAL) tested and made from flexible and shatter-proof medical-grade plastic, designed to avoid scratching Petri dishes (as fragile glass pipettes are prone to do).
All products are rigorously checked for quality, ensuring consistent geometries, close tolerances, and smooth edges, and are sterilized in compliance with ISO 11137 standard for gamma irradiation.
The use of the EZ-Tips, EZ-Strips or EZ-squeeze tips may help facilitate improved fertilization rates by aiding the mechanical removal of the cumulus-corona radiata complex from around the oocyte, improving oocyte visibility for the user, and allowing injection of spermatozoa during ICSI procedures without the cumulus cells blocking the ICSI needle.1,2

Key Product Information
General questions about the EZ-Range™ portfolio
EZ-Tip®
Premium Denudation and Transfer Pipette
EZ-Tip is a premium quality plastic tip for oocyte denudation or oocyte and embryo handling.
Our close-tolerance plastic tips are flexible, with smooth edges and consistent geometries.
The EZ-Tip can be easily extracted from its packaging and loaded into the pipettor.
The 0.9mm outside diameter fits the EZ-Grip and is compatible with all popular denudation and transfer pipettors.
“We have been using the EZ-Tip now for over a year. We have found them to be comfortable and easy to use whilst providing the fine control required for the safe handling of oocytes and embryos. The different diameters are well suited to all the stages of the IVF/ICSI process, from oocyte denudation to blastocyst transfer. ”

EZ-Grip® Pipettor
- Easy and quick tip assembly: simply push the tip onto the plunger wire – no need to unscrew the collet
- Straightforward ergonomic design – comfortable to use for long periods
- Smooth plunger for precise control
- Requires minimal maintenance
- Cleanliness: The equipment can undergo ultrasonic cleaning and be sterilized using an autoclave
- Blow-out capacity to remove the remaining liquid in the tip
Tip size indicator
Manual indicator dial may be used as a reminder of the size of the EZ-Tip fitted (or left blank if preferred)
This can be beneficial during oocyte denudation when multiple size diameters might be used
Volume adjustment
Adjust the volume according to the procedural need, for example large volumes for oocyte denudation and small volumes for vitrification or tubing of cells. One turn equates to approximately 0.2 µL.
Comfort Grip (optional)
Ergonomic accessory which helps reduce the strain caused by repetitive pipetting and enables pipette free standing.

- One complete sterile unit – designed as a pipettor handle and pipette in one to reduce the risk of cross-contamination between patient samples
- Bulb pipetting – for precise volume control
- Color-coded – for easy identification
- Test tube lid forms the pipettor handle. The lid can be used to close the unit again after use
- Designed for a comfortable working position, allowing the hand to rest on the working surface
