Pipetting - VITLAB pipeo Instrucciones De Manejo

8. Pipetting

Attach the pipette
Hold the pipette as near to its upper end as pos-
sible, and carefully insert it into the adapter until
it fits tightly.
Warning!
Be sure that the pipette fits tightly into the
adapter. Never use force. Thin pipets are
particularly liable to break. Avoid the risk of
injury!
Once the pipette has been securely attached,
always hold the instrument in a vertical position,
tip down.
Filling
Immerse the pipette tip into the liquid.
Slowly depress the upper pipetting button and fill
the pipette so that the meniscus is slightly above
the mark desired.
Attention!
Take care to avoid overfilling of the pipette.
