Graduated Cylinder
transfer pipette
micropipette
serological pipette
A _________has a cotton plug at the top end to slow water down. In case you overfill this will give you enough time to react and stop/reverse what you are doing before the water enters the barrel of the pipette pump.
Pasteur pipette
Serological pipette
Tip
Transfer pipette
Imagine you are in a science lab with Daniel, Abigail, and Ava. You see a piece of equipment and Daniel says, 'We should use this with ___.' What is he referring to?
Pasteur pipette
Serological pipette
Tip
Transfer pipette
pipette aid
You should NEVER rotate the volume adjuster on a micropipette beyond the upper and lower limit
true
false
Never invert or lay the micropipette down with a filled tip; fluid can flow back into the barrel and contaminate it for future use.
true
false
Letting the plunger of the micropipette snap back after withdrawing or expelling fluid won't damage the piston.
true
false
You must immerse the barrel of the micropipette in fluid, when taking in liquid
true
false
If you place the tip of a micropipette over a flame to sterilize it, it won't melt.
true
false
Sophia and Benjamin are having a debate. Sophia says that you should always change out the micropipette tip when changing reagents, but Benjamin isn't so sure. Who is correct?
Sophia (Always change the micropipette tip)
Benjamin (No need to change the micropipette tip)
Micropipettes are very accurate tools of measurement, but they are only as accurate as the person using it.
true
false
When expelling a liquid from a micropipette tip, it should be done up against the wall of the receiving container to allow the capillary action to draw out the liquid entirely.
true
false
