When working with measuring and transferring a liquid, there are many options to select from. Pipettes and dispensers can come in different shapes, types and sizes. Choosing the correct liquid handling device can seem confusing. Here we will help you in making an informed decision.
Measurement of liquid
First, you want to decide is the volume you are working with small or large. In this ...
Pipettes are used to transfer specific volumes of solutions from one place to another. These are used mainly in analytical and microbiology, cell biology, DNA analysis, PCR etc, where small volumes are used. Pipettes can come in fixed volumes or as variable volume so you can set the desired volume. Variable volume pipettes come in a particular volume range.

The following are some key points to remember when pipetting, they will help to improve your technique and results: Immersion It is important to ensure you do not immerse the pipette tip to far below the surface as it can cause the air in the tip to become compressed and too much liquid to be drawn up. Angle The pipette should be held vertically whilst pipetting, once again,...
Many tasks in the lab rely on accurate liquid volume measurement using a micropipette.
To keep the pipette accurate it should be stored properly - we've taken a look at how pipettes should be stored, and why.
