10 Ways to Make Your Micropipette Last Longer

  Pipettes are precision instruments that demand attention to detail in order to produce consistent results. Preventive maintenance performed on a regular basis will help to reduce malfunctions and keep your equipment in good working order. Maintenance schedules might vary depending on the pipette's criticality, the types of reagents exchanged with the pipette and the pipette's age. You can make your pipette last longer with high precision and accuracy by following these 10 simple steps. 1.     Decontaminate the pipette's outside ·          Put the pipette in a tray made of inert material, such as stainless steel. ·          Apply decontamination solution to the pipette's exterior and wipe it. ·          Use lint-free wipes to dry the pipette.   2.     Check the pipette's overall appearance ·          The plunger must be level and free from corrosion and fractures. ·          The micrometer window needs to be clean and straight. ·          There sh

A practical guide to selecting an electronic pipette

  You only need to glance around any lab to be amazed by the sheer variety of instruments they employ—both in terms of quantity and size. These pieces of equipment can be big, taking up roughly half the space in the room, or small, taking up only a benchtop or even less. The electronic pipette is a piece of compact but crucial equipment that is common on various lab counters. It is safe to state that without it, a lab is lacking. The challenge one has is how to select an electronic pipette while handling a particular activity because a pipette can be employed for a variety of purposes. You can follow our easy, step-by-step instructions for this. Writing down the specifics of the pipette experiment you plan to do is a preparatory step. The number of samples, the volume being transferred, replicates, the need for sterile conditions, and other factors should all be included. Creating a precise list of the steps in this way will facilitate selecting the appropriate pipette. Step 1 -

Different types of pipette controllers and their functions

  Motorized pipette controllers are essential in any laboratory that uses serological pipettes. While the classic 3-valve pipette fillers and pipette bulbs are fantastic for their simplicity, current motorized pipette controller technology offers a slew of advantages for your laboratory that were previously unavailable. If you want to improve your serological pipetting, an ergonomic pipette controller will save you time in the lab and reduce user fatigue. Controllers are an excellent technique to efficiently pipette large volumes of liquids. What is Pipette Controller? Pipette Controllers enable you to fill and release precise volumes rapidly. They are attached to a pipette, which can be made of glass or plastic and holds the liquid or volume itself. The controller's responsibility is to ensure that you are delivering the correct volumes of liquid at the precise times, whether you are conducting research in a lab or in a hospital environment. This precision level is essential f
