How to fill out micropipettor practice lab

How to Fill Out Micropipettor Practice Lab:

1. Start by familiarizing yourself with the micropipettor and its different parts, such as the plunger, volume adjustment, and tip ejector.
2. Ensure that the micropipettor is clean and calibrated according to the lab's instructions. This may involve checking and adjusting the volume settings.
3. Obtain the appropriate tips for the micropipettor based on the desired volume range for your lab.
4. Carefully attach the tips to the micropipettor, ensuring a secure fit to prevent any leakage or errors in measurements.
5. Before pipetting, practice using the micropipettor without any sample to get comfortable with the technique and to ensure accuracy in future steps.
6. Prepare your samples and place them in the appropriate vessels, such as microcentrifuge tubes or multi-well plates.
7. Take note of the desired volume for each sample and set the micropipettor accordingly.
8. Immerse the tip of the micropipettor into the sample, ensuring that it reaches the bottom without touching the sides to avoid cross-contamination.
9. Slowly press the plunger down to the first stop and wait for a few seconds to allow the micropipettor to aspirate the sample into the tip.
10. Withdraw the micropipettor from the sample, making sure not to touch the sides, and carefully transfer the sample into the desired location, such as another vessel or a reaction well.
11. After dispensing the sample, press the plunger down to the second stop to fully release any remaining liquid in the tip.
12. Carefully eject the used tip by using the tip ejector mechanism on the micropipettor.
13. Repeat the steps for each sample, ensuring that the micropipettor is properly calibrated and that a new tip is used each time to prevent cross-contamination.
14. Finally, clean and disinfect the micropipettor as per the lab's instructions to maintain accuracy and prevent any carryover of contaminants.
