A laboratory tool used to transport a measured volume of liquid

A pipette is a laboratory tool commonly used in chemistry, biology and medicine to transport a measured volume of liquid, often as a media dispenser. Pipettes come in several designs for various purposes with differing levels of accuracy and precision.

Types of Pipettes[edit]
There are several different types of pipettes, including:
- Volumetric Pipette: These pipettes deliver one specific volume of liquid and are designed for great precision. They are typically used in quantitative labs, especially for preparing solutions and standardizing chemicals.
- Graduated Pipette: These pipettes have a scale along the side allowing variable amounts of liquid to be delivered. They are less accurate than volumetric pipettes.
- Micropipette: These are used to transfer small quantities of liquid. They are often used in molecular biology, biochemistry, and medical tests.
- Pasteur Pipette: These are simple plastic or glass tubes that have a narrow tip on one end and a rubber bulb on the other. They can be used to transfer or mix a variety of liquids.
Usage[edit]
Pipettes are used in a variety of scientific disciplines, including chemistry, biology, and medicine. They are essential tools in the laboratory for the precise and accurate measurement and transfer of liquid volumes.
