The pipette is an essential tool for nearly anyone in molecular biology. You’ll use a pipette in many scenarios to accurately dispense small amounts of liquid (think: 0.1 µL to 1 mL). When working in a laboratory, properly dispensing liquid ensures the accuracy of your experiment and any changes to the amount you are dispensing can negatively impact your experimental results. This protocol will guide you in selecting the correct pipette and pipette tip and using the pipette.
