How to read and set micropipette

NOTES: • Never point a pipette up. This may cause liquid to run down into the pipette destroying it. • When withdrawing liquids with the pipette, always release the plunger slowly. This prevents liquid from rushing into the end of the pipette and clogging it up. This is especially important with large volume pipettes (200-1000 !l). • Be sure you use the proper size tip for each pipette. • Always use a new tip for each different liquid. • Use the correct pipette for the volume that is to be dispensed. Never use the 200-1000 !l pipette to dispense volumes below 200 !l. going below or above the range of the micropipette may damage the instrument.
