Researcher, University of Bristol

Our lab was interested in purchasing a syringe pump from WPI. The company's support was helpful in identifying the required model and even informed us of model-specific limitations (which were of no concern for our intended use). The overall processing and delivery was exceedingly fast – less tha...

NanoFil Syringe

NanoFil Syringe


NanoFil™ is a specially designed 10 µL syringe developed in response to customer requests for improved microinjection in mice and other small animals. It makes quantitative nanoliter injection much easier and more accurate than any other method currently in use.



Using NanoFil™ in different configurations

Direct injection by hand

This is the simplest and most economical way to inject. Any of our tips can be inserted directly into the NanoFil™ microliter syringe. Even the SilFlex tubing can be inserted to switch from hand injection to the other methods listed below. This method is limited by the accuracy of plunger movement that is achievable with a human hand.

Installed on WPI’s UMP3 microsyringe pump

This will allow the user to achieve nanoliter resolution and reproducibility. For neural system injection, mount the UMP3 on a stereotaxic frame.

SilFlex tubing and holder

The needle is mounted on a small plastic holder that is connected to the NanoFil by a 35 cm length of flexible tubing. The NanoFil syringe is mounted on the UMP3 pump. This configuration allows the user to hold the animal in one hand and insert the needle with the other. When the needle reaches the desired location, activate the pump using the footswitch and the pre-programmed injection volume will be delivered. This configuration gives a nanoliter level of accuracy and reproducibility. It is best suited for applications such as the RPE and IO injection.
