Our Pastette 40th Anniversary Winners – Harefield Hospital

February 5, 2019 By Webmaster With no comments yet

Kelly Devine and her colleagues from the Immunosuppression Monitoring Laboratory at Harefield Hospital were the lucky winners of a Tassimo Coffee Machine in our Golden Ticket Giveaway for the 40th Anniversary of Pastette®.

Here’s what they had to say about Alpha Laboratories’ Pastettes:

“We have been using plastic transfer pipettes for over 20 years to decant our extracted blood samples for drug analysis by mass spectrometry.

We also use them for removing plasma/serum from our spun samples.

We expect high quality pipettes and started ordering Pastette from Alpha Laboratories three years ago when the company we were using let us down.

We have not looked back; Alpha customer service is excellent – ordering is quick and easy, they always deliver on time and the prices are very competitive.”

Pastette® Product Change Notification

January 10, 2018 By Webmaster With no comments yet

Subject: Resin Source Change for Alpha Laboratories’ Pastettes®

Plastic-Pastettes

At Alpha Laboratories we continually strive to optimise and improve our products to provide our customers with the best possible solutions. Periodically this involves a review of raw materials and their sourcing, to ensure continuity of supply. As a result, please be advised that we will be utilising a newly sourced Low Density Polyethylene resin for the manufacture of our Pastettes.

This new LDPE resin is a similar grade to that currently used and complies with the same regulatory requirements. A comprehensive verification has been completed to confirm all products meet our current specifications. This change will ensure our Pastettes continue to be manufactured to our high quality standards.

We expect to implement the change of low density polyethylene resin during the second quarter of 2018. Stringent source management will be implemented to maintain tight control and traceability. All other materials used in the manufacture of the products will remain the same; therefore, this change is not expected to affect the form, fit or function of our finished products.

The following supporting documents are available through these links:

If you require additional information in relation to this notification, please contact us. Thank you for your continued support of Alpha Laboratories’ Pastettes.

Quick and Simple Measured Transfers at Cwm Taf UHB Clinical Biochemistry (Graduated Pastettes)

January 25, 2017 By Webmaster With no comments yet

The reason we like the Pastettes is mainly due to the graduation marks, which are great for aliquoting liquids to a rough measure in equal quantities.“We have been using the Alpha Laboratories 1ml Pastettes (LW4040) for a number of years and are very pleased with the product.

The reason we like the Pastettes is mainly due to the graduation marks, which are great for aliquoting liquids to a rough measure in equal quantities. They are also very easy to use and to dispose of.”
