How to use a pipette (pipettor) (procedure)

A pipette is a volumetric device for quantitative aspiration of small amounts of liquid.

A pipettor is a tool that adjusts a dial to suck out any desired volume. It is very convenient and can suck out precisely.

However, please observe the "must follow" and "must not do" rules. Not only will you fail to weigh, you will also damage your expensive pipettor.

Basic Usage

　As shown in the picture below, when the piston is released from the depressed position, liquid is sucked out of the tip of the pipette. If the piston is pushed in again, the liquid can be produced.

★　Top" is the state in which the piston is released.

★　When the piston is pushed to the "1st stop" (first left in the picture below), it is in the "ready to suck out a certain volume" state.

★　When the piston is raised to Top (second left in the picture below) while sucking up liquid, it has "finished sucking up a certain volume.

★　When the piston is pushed to the "1st stop" (the third left in the picture below), it is in the "mostly discharged" state.

★　When the piston is pushed to the "2nd stop" (4th left in the picture below), it is in the state of "all discharged with the last push".

★　The piston was released and returned to its original state.
