Team Microlit: How has COVID-19 affected your life/the research work you do?

Mr. Reddy: Recently, we have made one lab operational to develop a cure – vaccine, medicine – for COVID-19.


Team Microlit: How long have you been associated with Microlit? Which of our products are you using and for what purpose?

Mr. Reddy: We have been associated with Microlit for over 5 years now. We use Microlit Micropipettes for spiking, metal validation and for transferring solutions from one vial to another. Before micropipettes, we were using syringes but it was not an ideal method. Now, we are able to conduct spiking studies without errors as it avoids cross-contamination by allowing us to replace the tips frequently. We have also been using the bottle top dispenser, Microlit Scitus.


Team Microlit: How often do you use Microlit Scitus and for what purpose?

Mr. Reddy: We use Microlit Scitus quite frequently for dispensing acetic acid. We are really happy with the high chemical compatibility of the dispenser.


Team Microlit: How would you describe your experience with our products?

Mr. Reddy: Our overall experience with Microlit products has been good. In my opinion, Microlit is a good organization that undertakes various activities and develops products keeping the user in mind.


Team Microlit: Would you recommend Microlit products to other institutes and/or researchers?

Mr. Reddy: Yes, we would like to recommend our peers and partner labs to use Microlit Scitus and Microlit Micropipettes. The products have helped us speed up our processes and improve the precision and accuracy of our experiments.
