Abstract

A rinsing tray system for cleaning the pipette tips of a multipipetting device is described. The rinsing tray system substantially comprises a first tray and a second tray below the latter, these two trays communicating via openings which are arranged in the same grid dimension as the pipette tips of a multipipetting device. The openings are made in webs so that the rinsing liquid located in the first tray can flow into the second tray only by means of the pipette tips and not directly. The rinsing tray system according to the invention enables a particularly time-saving and space-saving cleaning of the pipette tips of a multipipetting device.
