Impact of Pipetting Technique
2 Feb 2016The pipette is a reliable precision instrument that has been used and trusted for many years. However, as with many forms of instrumentation, a pipette will perform only as well as the operator’s technique allows. Differences in technique – some more than others – can alter delivery volumes. As your laboratory’s demand for accuracy and precision increases, the importance of understanding and developing optimal pipetting technique becomes imperative. This application note reviews the results of a study conducted at Artel to determine these differences and assesses their impact upon accuracy and precision.
