A Brief Introduction of Pipets- Modes and Types
A pipet is a laboratory equipment used to measure and transfer small quantities of liquid, usually milliliters (mL) or microliters from one container to another. Due to its transferring property, the transfer pipets are widely used in chemistry, medical sciences, molecular biology, and various experiments. The design of the pipet completely fulfills its efficiency in the working environment. Modes of Pipet Majorly, there are two modes of pipet used in the laboratories: Forward mode Reverse mode Forward Mode Forward mode is used for most aqueous solutions because it is more accurate and precise when it comes to providing better outcomes of laboratory work. In forward mode pipet, firstly, the plunger is pressed to the second stop by immersing the pipet tip in the sample. And then, the plunger is released to grasp the solution from the container. Finally, the complete solution is dispersed to its destination by pressing the plunger to the second stop. Reverse Mode The reverse mode of tra...
