Micro pipettes ~


 Hello~~everyone
today tour is about micro pipette~

Pipettes are used to accurately measure and dispense small volumes of liquid. The capacity of a micro pipette can range from less than 1µl to 1000µl (1ml), while macro pipettes can measure volumes greater than 1ml.
 and
Today is all about Micro pipettes~~

 
A array of Micro pipettes ranging from 10 to 1000uL

From right: 10uL, 100uL and 1000uL pipettes, actually they was suppose to be a stand that holds all this pipettes, but this photo was taken at night, and i don't wish to wake them up~
so i just shoot while they were lying down



1000uL micro pipettes
It has a working volume of 100~1000uL, as stated on the top of the pipettes

shhhhhhh.......don't wake them~!!!! they spill acid at you when they wake up

 
100uL Micro pipettes
As above this pipettes is capable of taking a volume from 10~100uL

1000uL pipette tips
So this is the tips of the 1000uL pipettes~it is usually disposable, and the different in height here is caused by the mixing of different brands~~



and this is another box of pipette tips~also used for 1000uL micro pipettes
(and yes~all large one uses blue color as they represent the large ocean,, i do not made this story up, Brandon told me about it)


Pipette tips for 100uL micro pipettes
AND the yellow one here is used for 100uL pipettes~with a yellow representing the land

so now ~~since the working volume of a blue pipettes is from 100-1000uL
how does it actually works?
easy~just turn the nob above to the a value you desire~
but make it as gentle as possible~they are high fragile and if you really hurt them

they would pee themselves and we all will be in trouble
so now~this one is in 1001uL~~
(which turning a value above 1000  is not recommended, this is just a demonstration. i am not gonna use this pipette at this volume)
Brandon forced me to do this also~!!!

so by turning the nob~~i changes the value to 963uL~~
amazing right?


ok now really..

and next is the yellow pipettes~~which i had change the volume from 100uL to 80uL




OK~that's all for today
and that brandon is the stupid ninja in my last post~
hope you don't kill him
he hasn't been trained
