Pipette tip for electroporation device

A system for electroporation of a sample, the system comprising:

• a pulse generator;
• a pipette having a distal end;
• and
• a pipette tip configured to be mounted on the distal end of the pipette, wherein the pipette tip includes an elongated part located at a distal end of the pipette tip, a void at least partially defined by an inner surface of the elongated part, and a conductor located adjacent the distal end of the pipette when mounted on the pipette,
• wherein the void is configured to hold a sample,
• wherein the conductor is in electrical communication with the pulse generator and is located at least partially on or at one side of the outer surface of the pipette tip and configured to contact the sample contained within the void to apply an electrical pulse to the sample along a length of the void contained withing the elongated part via a second conductor in electrical communication with the pulse generator and located adjacent the distal end of the pipette tip, and
• wherein the elongated part of the pipette tip contains no electrical conducting structure along its length.
