<p>A support is provided that is useful with a pipette tip holder for pipette tips. The support (14) has a bottom member (16) and a pair of opposed side walls (18a, 18b). The side walls (18a, 18b) are attached to the bottom member (16) and extend therefrom at least a distance (d). The bottom member (16) and side walls (18a, 18b) form a cavity (20) therebetween. Each side wall (18a, 18b) defines a slot (22a, 22b) therein. The slots are in a facing relationship and extend between first ends (24a, 24b) and second ends (26a, 26b) along a support plane (28). The support plane (28) is parallel to the bottom member (16) and spaced the distance (d) above it. The distance (d) is such that when the tip holder (10) containing pipette tips (P) is inserted into the slots (22a, 22b), the tips (P) do not touch the bottom member (16) but continue to rest on the tip holder (10). Thus, the support (14) supports the pipette tips (P) and pipette tip holder (10) during the pipette tip removal process and resists inadvertent dislodging and lifting of tips (P) and holder (10) as the tips are removed.</p> |
