PMP Series Mini Pipettes
Manufacturer: United Scientific
Description
Each model is color-coded for quick identification and calibrated for high-precision performance.
Key Functional Benefits:
- Super Blowout Mechanism: The two-stage plunger allows you to go beyond the first stop to expel the final liquid volume, critical for high-viscosity liquids or micro-volume accuracy.
- Universal Tip Cone: The 5 µL, 10 µL, and 20 µL models are specially designed to accept both standard 200 µL tips and ultra micro tips. Using ultra micro tips significantly enhances precision for these smaller volumes.
- Fully Autoclavable: Unlike many entry-level pipettes, the entire PMP unit can be autoclaved at 121°C without the need for disassembly, ensuring a sterile workflow in microbiology and cell culture.
- Ergonomic Length: The $130\text{mm}$ profile is ideal for use inside hoods or for those who find standard 200 mm pipettes cumbersome.
Pipetting Insights & Strategy:
- Reverse Pipetting Technique: For samples that are prone to foaming or have high vapor pressure, use the two-step plunger to aspirate a slight excess and dispense only the calibrated volume. This minimizes air-bubble errors.
- Maintenance: Because these are fully autoclavable, ensure you use a small amount of high-quality pipette grease on the piston after every 10 autoclave cycles to maintain the smooth "two-step" feel.
- Tip Selection: For volumes under 20 µL, we highly recommend Ultra Micro Tips to reduce the internal "dead air" space, which directly improves accuracy.
