Tissue forceps with 1x2 teeth have one tooth on one tip and two teeth on the other tip of the tweezers. These tweezers have a fine tip for delicate tissue manipulation, such as during ophthalmic surgery or plastic surgery. Laboratory researchers choose these tissue forceps for precision work and microdissection. The teeth ensure a firm grasp of the tissue, which is ideal for slippery or hard to hold tissues. While tweezers with teeth run the risk of puncturing delicate tissue, the 1x2 configuration causes less tissue trauma than surgical tweezers with more teeth. These are available with curved or straight tips. The curved tips offer greater visibility of the operating area. They are 12.5cm (5") long and fit easily into your hand for precision work. These are manufactured with surgical grade stainless steel or our premium German steel, both of which are suitable for sterilization by autoclave or chemical sterilant. As with all fine surgical instruments, for best results and a long life for the instruments, always clean your surgical forceps thoroughly after each use.

When it comes to sterilizing lab forceps, it is crucial to follow proper protocols to maintain a sterile environment and prevent cross-contamination. Like other surgical instruments, laboratory forceps may be sterilized by autoclaving, dry heat, or a chemical sterilant. However, forceps are uniquely designed for many specific functions, and a few pointers here can ensure you get the best results.
NOTE: Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and best practices to ensure effective sterilization and maintenance of your lab forceps.
Laboratory forceps are surgical instruments that come in a variety of types. Here’s a brief overview to help you choose a set of forceps for your application. Surgical forceps can be divided into two broad categories, thumb forceps (also called tweezers) and hemostatic forceps. Tweezers can be further divided into dressing forceps and tissue forceps.
