Question

When dispensing solution from a micropipet, hold the pipet vertically within the receiving vessel with the tip touching the inside wall. Press the plunger to the first stop and discard the remaining solution with the tip.

True
False

Answer 1

I must confess that I have never used a micropipet similar to the one the question describes. When I used a micropipet many many years ago while doing research for my dissertation, (that was in the 1950s), I used (mostly) 50 uL and they were manually operated. No plungers. They were "to contain" units so we drew the sample in with a squeeze bulb and I blew on the top to expel the liquid inside. I don't think I should give advice on these modern dufangled gadgets. You can Google this topic and see diagrams of the different kinds and how they operate.
