This manual pipette requires periodic calibration per ISO 8655-2 to maintain specified accuracy. Only the lower half of the pipette is autoclavable, limiting sterilization to the lower assembly.
- Calibration Requirement: The pipette must be calibrated according to ISO 8655-2 at the three test volumes (20, 10, 2 µL) to ensure systematic and random errors remain within specification.
- Sterilization Limitation: Sterilization is restricted to the lower half of the pipette; users must verify that the specific model supports autoclavability before proceeding.
- Tip Compatibility: Only compatible pipette tips that ensure a stable seal and repeatable performance should be used with this 2-20 µL range.
How does the systematic error of the TopPette 2-20 µL pipette vary across its volume range, and what is the accuracy at the lowest setting?
At 20 µL, systematic error is ±0.20 µL (±1.0%); at 10 µL, ±0.12 µL (±1.2%); at 2 µL, ±0.10 µL (±5.0%). The accuracy degrades significantly at the lower end, with a 5% error at 2 µL compared to 1% at 20 µL. This trade-off should be considered for applications requiring precise low-volume delivery.
Is the TopPette 2-20 µL pipette suitable for PCR or qPCR setup, and what sterilization considerations apply?
Yes, the product is explicitly listed for PCR or qPCR setup. The lower half of the pipette is autoclavable where indicated, which supports decontamination between runs. Users should confirm compatible tips and calibration requirements before use.
What are the calibration and maintenance requirements for the TopPette 2-20 µL pipette to ensure reliable performance?
The pipette includes a user calibration reference per ISO 8655-2, as indicated in the technical table. Routine calibration checks at the test volumes (20, 10, 2 µL) are recommended to maintain specified systematic and random error tolerances. The lower half autoclavability allows for sterilization but should be confirmed per the specific model.
This manual single-channel pipette offers a 2-20 µL range with 0.02 µL increment and partial autoclavability, but accuracy degrades significantly at the lower end (2 µL: ±5.0% systematic error), requiring careful volume selection for precise work.
Positive
- Fine volume increment: 0.02 µL increment allows precise adjustment for microliter-scale liquid handling.
- Partial autoclavability: Lower half is autoclavable where indicated, supporting sterilization for aseptic workflows.
Trade-offs
- Accuracy loss at low volumes: Systematic error at 2 µL is ±5.0%, which may compromise accuracy for low-volume applications.
- Limited sterilization coverage: Only lower half is autoclavable where indicated; full sterilization may not be achievable.
