Look out for inconsistent volumes, difficulty aspirating or dispensing liquids, and physical damage to the piston or seals. A faulty pipette will lead to errors in test results. For example, under-delivering reagents and over-supplying samples, test results are skewed, misguiding clinicians on the patient results.
The gravimetric method
When is it time to replace your old pipette?
Recognizing a dysfunctional pipette
The gravimetric method
The gravimetric method is an easy and cheap technique to assess the accuracy and precision of a pipette (and the operator) by measuring the mass of water dispensed.
Pipette Verification tool
CYANPipettes
Piston-driven air displacement pipettes.
Their high accuracy and precision contribute to reliable results. By avoiding volumetric errors, the measurements more accurately reflect the true value of the samples.
What do the CYANPipettes offer to lab technicians?
- Ease of work: CYANPipettes are reliable and ergonomic. They offer handling comfort and require minimal manimulation force. This reduces hand fatigue during repetitive tasks, ensuring you can work comfortably and efficiently throughout your shift.
- Confidence: CYANPipettes ensure accurate and reproducible volumes. You can trust the results you produce. This means fewer errors, less need for retesting, and no second-guessing your technique or your tools.
- Time savings: CYANPipettes are functional pipettes. You will focus on performing assays. You won't waste time troubleshooting.
- Professional credibility: accurate results require exact volumes. CYANPipettes reinforce your role as a reliable and skilled technician.
- Job satisfaction: Working with good tools enables you to deliver accurate results, which fosters pride in your work. Only correct diagnosis supports patient care and treatment. Knowing you contribute positively is highly rewarding.
Good practice
CYANPipettes are precision instruments designed for accurate and reliable pipetting.
Like all precision equipment, regular maintenance, calibration, and proper handling are required for accuracy and long-term performance. Follow the provided operating instructions carefully, use CYANTips, and check the performance regularly using the gravimetric method.
