Laboratory work is pertinent to an exceptionally broad scope of principles and professions. But for all the different research fields, there is a unifying factor – most rely on pipettes to safely and accurately transfer liquid samples and conduct repeatable experiments. Most – if not all – basic laboratory guides feature sections about pipettes and pipetting techniques. Indeed, pipetting is one of the most common tasks performed in lab settings and one of the most important. It is important to remember that pipetting is not a one-size-fits-all process. Everything from liquids to workflow can directly influence the pipettes, accessories and pipetting techniques that should be used. Because pipetting occurs so frequently in lab settings, it stands to reason a user would want to ensure proper equipment and techniques are always used.
But what constitutes proper equipment and technique?
There are several factors to consider regarding pipettes and pipetting but making these choices does not have to be a daunting task. Sartorius offers an all-inclusive buyers guide for selecting pipettes and pipetting accessories and a robust library of resources, so there is never a missed step when it comes to technique, maintenance, etc.
Deciding your laboratory requires pipettes is the easy part. The breakdown of needs and variables will ultimately determine which pipette and accessory choices will make the most sense.
Quick Tip: A good rule of thumb is to remember the highest accuracy levels are achieved by choosing the smallest volume pipettes capable of handling your volumes. Pipettes are most accurate at nominal volume.
Before you purchase your next pipette, consider the following:
When the name of the game is precision – and you want to leave the variables of manual pipetting behind with the simple push of a button – it might be time to explore electronic pipettes. Sartorius Picus® 2 family pipettes are ideal for your daily liquid-handling lab requirements.
With fully electronic control, you can be sure of consistent, user-independent results. And with multiple settings, you can expedite your workflow, handling larger tasks faster than with mechanical pipettes.

Understanding the specific needs of your application can help you select the right pipette and improve your results. There is a strong correlation between lab applications and the type of pipetting equipment to get the job done in the best possible way. Everything from sample medium to sterility requirements plays a role in the types of pipettes and accessories used. Knowing which pipettes and accessories most effectively mesh with various applications can keep pipetting tasks safe, accurate and repeatable - regardless of your field.
You’ve found the perfect pipette for your workplace needs. You have accessorized your equipment with pipette tips, filters, stands and everything else you need to create a fully functional pipetting workspace.
What now?
Now is the time to make sure you are getting the most out of your pipette by going back to basics. By employing the best practices when using pipettes and pipetting equipment, not only is the life of the equipment prolonged, but sample/experiment integrity is preserved through elimination of error.
Service life cycle management is an important thing to consider when purchasing equipment. Whether the field is pharma, food and beverage, university, etc., good practices and preventative maintenance are crucial to increasing the longevity of equipment. And when the going gets tough, it also helps to know your lab equipment is backed by teams of exceptional repair and service professionals. To maintain the level of purity critical in many laboratory applications, adequate cleaning and decontamination of pipettes is necessary.
